    ELEMENTS OF POETRY

    Poetry can be defined as


    literature in a metrical form or a
    composition forming rhythmic
    lines. It is a poem that follows a
    particular flow of rhythm and
    meter.
    METER
     structure of syllables which
    follow the rhythm has to be
    included.
    STANZA
     defined as a smaller unit or group of lines or a
    paragraph in a poem. A particular stanza has a
    specific meter, rhyme scheme, etc. Based on the
    number of lines, stanzas are named as couplet (2
    lines), Tercet (3 lines), Quatrain (4 lines), Cinquain (5
    lines), Sestet (6 lines), Septet (7 lines), Octave (8
    lines).
    RHYME
    means that the last words or sounds of the lines
    match with each other in some form.
     is basically similar sounding words like cat and hat,
    close and shows, house and mouse, etc. Free verse
    poetry, though, does not follow this system.
    SYMBOLISM
    A symbol can stand for many things at one time
    and leads the reader out of a systematic and
    structured method of looking at things. Often a
    symbol used in the poem will be used to create such
    an effect.
    IMAGERY
    used by the poet for readers to create an image in
    their imagination. Imagery appeals to all the five
    senses. For e.g., when the poet describes, the flower
    is bright red, an image of a red flower is immediately
    created in the readers mind.
    FORM
     the style or type of the poem.
    1. Lyric Poetry
    2. Narrative Poem
    3. Descriptive Poem
    CONNOTATION
     the meaning and interpretation of the poetry.
    IMPLICATION
    What does the poem imply towards society?
