POETRY -> FORMRefers to a poem’s structure, or the way the words are arranged on the page.

All words in a poem are arranged into line.The length of the lines, where they break, and how they are punctuated add to the meaning and rhythm.

A group of lines in a poem is known as a stanza (it’s like a paragraph in fiction).

FORMArranged into two categories:1.Traditional2.Organic

TRADITIONAL FORMFollows rules and a set structure.Popular due to predictable and regular rhythm and rhyme.

Example: Sonnet, Haiku, Lyric

EXAMPLES OF TRADITIONAL POETRYEpic: Long, narrative poem -> OdysseyOde: a meditative or commemorative lyric poemBallad: a narrative poem that is meant to be sungSonnet: 14 line poem having a set pattern of rhythm and rhyme -> Shakespeare

Haiku: a form of Japanese poetry with a set number of lines and syllables

Limerick: a light/humorous poem with a particular rhyme scheme.

TRADITIONAL FORM EXAMPLE

ORGANIC FORMMay not follow any set rules, pattern, rhythm, or rhyme.

UnpredictableOften uses unconventional spelling or punctuation.The lack of rules, pattern, or rhythm often leads to a deeper meaning in the poem.
