    Poetry has several key structural elements including stanzas, meter, and rhyme. Poetic language is more compressed than prose and word order is significant. Common poetic devices include similes, metaphors, personification, symbolism, and imagery. A poem's tone, sound, and rhythm are also important with tools like diction, consonance, alliteration, and stress patterns. A poem can also employ emotional appeals through pathos to manipulate the reader's feelings.

    KEY ASPECTS OF POETRY

    VIDAILYN D. MALACHICO
    11-EXCELLENCE (HUMSS)
    STRUCTURE
    • Structure of Poetry Structure
    Definition Stanza A stanza is a group of
    lines in a poem. It is often called a
    “verse”. Rhyme Rhyme is a pattern of
    words that contain similar
    sounds. Meter Meter is the rhythmic
    structure of a poem.
    STRUCTURE OF POETRY

    •Stanza •Break
    •Meter •Line
    •Ryme
    LANGUAGE
    • Poetic language is the language most often
    (but not exclusively) used in poetry. The key
    is that poetry is much more compressed
    than fiction (short stories or novels for
    instance). Since the language is denser in
    a poem, the word order is so much more
    significant.
    EXAMPLES
    • 1. Simile -- comparison using like or as
    • ex.  The pretty flower is like a ray of sunshine in my garden.
    • 2.  Metaphor -- implied comparison
    • ex.  The pretty flower is a ray of sunshine in my garden.
    • 3.  Personfication -- giving a human quality to a non-human thing
    • ex.  The flower smiled its radiance over the rest of the garden.
    • 4.  Symbolism -- an object or person that represents some other
    quality. 
    • ex.  The beautiful flower represents the glory of nature.
    • 5.  Imagery -- language that appeals to any of the senses
    • Ex. The vibrant smooth yellow petals emitted a beautiful perfume
    that attrached buzzy bees.
    TONE,SOUND,RHYTHM
    • DICTION, TONE, VOICE. Diction refers to
    a poem's entire word choice, the overall effect, like the
    ingredients selected for a recipe, creating
    the tone or mood of the poem.
    • sound play because they take advantage of the
    performative, spoken nature of poetry.
    • regular rhythm and word sounds (like alliteration). These
    are sometimes collectively called sound play because they
    take advantage of the performative, spoken nature
    of poetry.
    EXAMPLES
    •TONE- Some words that can describe the mood of
    a poem might be: romantic, realistic, optimistic, pessimistic,
    gloomy, mournful, sorrowful, etc.

    •SOUND-Consonance is the repetition of consonant sounds in


    the same line.Alliteration: Alliteration is the repetition of
    consonant sounds in the same line.

    •RHYTHM-The first syllable is stressed, and the last two are


    unstressed, as in PO-e-try. Here are the most common types of
    meter in the English language: Iamb: The Iamb is a pattern of
    one unstressed syllable followed by one stressed syllable, as in
    the word: en-JOY.
    EMOTIONAL APPEAL
    • Pathos represents an appeal to
    the emotions of an audience. An emotional
    appealuses the manipulation of
    the emotions rather than valid logic to win
    an argument.Emotional appeal is a logical
    fallacy, whereby a debater attempts to win
    an argument by trying to get
    an emotional reaction from the opponent
    and audience.
    EXAMPLES
    • SSome common examples would be 
    • appeal to pity, 
    • appeal to anger, 
    • appeal to fear,
    • appeal to pride.
    • Those are types of overt appeals to emotion.
    Examples:
    • Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, look at this
    miserable man, in a wheelchair, unable to use his legs.
