STANZA
A stanza is a group of lines in poetry with no blank
lines in between. Stanzas are like paragraphs in normal
writing. They divide one part of the poem from the
next part.
DREAMS by Langston Hughes
Hold fast to dream
For if dreams die
Life is broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Froze with snow.
VERSE
•A single metrical line in a poetic
composition; one line of poetry.

Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Froze with snow.
RHYME
A rhyme is a repetition of identical or similar
sounds in two or more different words
One, two,
Buckle my shoe.
Three, four,
Shut the door.
How do dreams know
when to creep
into my head
when I fall off
to sleep?
March winds and April showers
Bring forth May flowers.
Spaghetti! Spaghetti
Spaghetti! Spaghetti!
You’re wonderful stuff,
I love you, spaghetti,
I can’t get enough.
You’re covered with sauce
And you’re sprinkled with cheese,
Spaghetti! Spaghetti!
Oh, give me some please.
Jack Prelutsky
RHYTHM
• The beat created by the sounds of the words
in a poem (perfect example: RAP)
• A poem has rhythm if the reader of the poem
gives the poem rhythm.
HUMPTY DUMPTY
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
and of all the king’s horses and all of
the King’s men
couldn’t put Humpty Dumpty together
again.
