1 Warm-up Explain the quote below. What does this quote say about poetry? What is poetry? What is poetry about? What does it say about life? "We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless... of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?" Answer. That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?" --John Keating, Dead Poet Society

10 CINQUAIN A five line poem containing 22 syllables Two Syllables Four Syllables Six Syllables Eight Syllables Two Syllables Example: How frail Above the bulk Of crashing water hangs Autumnal, evanescent, wan The moon.
11 SHAKESPEAREAN SONNET A fourteen line poem with a specific rhyme scheme. The poem is written in three quatrains and ends with a couplet. The rhyme scheme is abab cdcd efef gg Shall I compare thee to a summer s day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate. Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer s lease hath all too short a date. Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimmed; And every fair from fair sometimes declines, By chance or nature s changing course untrimmed. But thy eternal summer shall not fade Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow st; Nor shall Death brag thou wanderest in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou grow st So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
12 NARRATIVE POEMS A poem that tells a story. Generally longer than the lyric styles of poetry b/c the poet needs to establish characters and a plot. Examples of Narrative Poems The Raven The Highwayman Casey at the Bat The Walrus and the Carpenter
13 CONCRETE POEMS In concrete poems, the words are arranged to create a picture that relates to the content of the poem. Poetry Is like Flames, Which are Swift and elusive Dodging realization Sparks, like words on the Paper, leap and dance in the Flickering firelight. The fiery Tongues, formless and shifting Shapes, tease the imiagination. Yet for those who see, Through their mind s Eye, they burn Up the page.
14 FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE
15 SIMILE A comparison of two things using like, as than, or resembles. Example: She is as beautiful as a sunrise.
16 METAPHOR A direct comparison of two unlike things Does not use the words like, as, than, or resembles. Example: All the world s a stage, and we are merely players. - William Shakespeare
17 EXTENDED METAPHOR A metaphor that goes several lines or possible the entire length of a work.
18 IMPLIED METAPHOR The comparison is hinted at but not clearly stated. Example: The poison sacs of the town began to manufacture venom, and the town swelled and puffed with the pressure of it. - from The Pearl by John Steinbeck
19 PERSONIFICATION An animal given humanlike qualities or an object given life-like qualities. Basic Personification Examples The flowers begged for water. Lightning danced across the sky. The carved pumpkin smiled at me. The wind whispered softly in the night. The sun played hide and seek with the clouds. The stars winked at me. The camera loved her. The bed groaned.
20 PERSONIFICATION from Ninki by Shirley Jackson Ninki was by this time irritated beyond belief by the general air of incompetence exhibited in the kitchen, and she went into the living room and got Shax, who is extraordinarily lazy and never catches his own chipmunks, but who is, at least, a cat, and preferable, Ninki saw clearly, to a man with a gun.

23 Practice What are other similes that you know? What are other metaphors that you know?
24 Practice What are other examples of personification that have not already been mentioned in class.
25 Review Exit Slip What is poetry? What is a simile? What is a metaphor? What is personification?
26 Warm-up Copy each line and identify each as a simile, metaphor, or personification. Her shirt was yellow like a sunflower. He was so small that the chair swallowed him whole. He was a bull in a china shop.
27 SOUND EFFECTS
28 RHYTHM The beat created by the sounds of the words in a poem Rhythm can be created by meter, rhyme, alliteration and refrain.
29 METER A pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables. Meter occurs when the stressed and unstressed syllables of the words in a poem are arranged in a repeating pattern. When poets write in meter, they count out the number of stressed (strong) syllables and unstressed (weak) syllables for each line. They they repeat the pattern throughout the poem.
30 METER cont. FOOT - unit of meter. A foot can have two or three syllables. Usually consists of one stressed and one or more unstressed syllables. TYPES OF FEET The types of feet are determined by the arrangement of stressed and unstressed syllables. (cont.)
31 METER cont. TYPES OF FEET (cont.) Iambic - unstressed, stressed Trochaic - stressed, unstressed Anapestic - unstressed, unstressed, stressed Dactylic - stressed, unstressed, unstressed
32 FREE VERSE POETRY Unlike metered poetry, free verse poetry does NOT have any repeating patterns of stressed and unstressed syllables. Does NOT have rhyme. Free verse poetry is very conversational - sounds like someone talking with you. A more modern type of poetry.
33 BLANK VERSE POETRY from Julius Ceasar Written in lines of iambic pentameter, but does NOT use end rhyme. Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders that I yet have heard, It seems to me most strange that men should fear; Seeing that death, a necessary end, Will come when it will come.
34 RHYME Words sound alike because they share the same ending vowel and consonant sounds. (A word always rhymes with itself.) LAMP STAMP Share the short a vowel sound Share the combined mp consonant sound
35 END RHYME A word at the end of one line rhymes with a word at the end of another line Hector the Collector Collected bits of string. Collected dolls with broken heads And rusty bells that would not ring.
36 INTERNAL RHYME A word inside a line rhymes with another word on the same line. Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary. From The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe
37 RHYME SCHEME A rhyme scheme is a pattern of rhyme (usually end rhyme, but not always). Use the letters of the alphabet to represent sounds to be able to visually see the pattern. (See next slide for an example.)
38 SAMPLE RHYME SCHEME The Germ by Ogden Nash A mighty creature is the germ, Though smaller than the pachyderm. His customary dwelling place Is deep within the human race. His childish pride he often pleases By giving people strange diseases. Do you, my poppet, feel infirm? You probably contain a germ. a a b b c c a a
39 ONOMATOPOEIA Words that imitate the sound they are naming BUZZ OR sounds that imitate another sound The silken, sad, uncertain, rustling of each purple curtain...
40 ALLITERATION Consonant sounds repeated at the beginnings of words If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, how many pickled peppers did Peter Piper pick?
41 CONSONANCE Similar to alliteration EXCEPT... The repeated consonant sounds can be anywhere in the words silken, sad, uncertain, rustling..
42 ASSONANCE Repeated VOWEL sounds in a line or lines of poetry. (Often creates near rhyme.) Lake Fate Base Fade (All share the long a sound.)
43 ASSONANCE cont. Examples of ASSONANCE: Slow the low gradual moan came in the snowing. - John Masefield Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep. - William Shakespeare
