6. Poetry is a form of literature which allows the writers who called to be
“poets” to express their thoughts, feelings, emotions, ideas about a particular
theme or topic.
When reading a poem, it is common that we get confuse between poet
and persona. Remember that poet is the author of the poem or literary piece

9. Stanza is a section of a poem named for the number of lines it
contains.

12. Au/tumn / leaves / de/scend,
Whis/pe/ring sec/rets to earth,
Na/ture's / fi/nal/ bow.

13. Meter happens when the stressed and unstressed
syllables of the words in a poem are arranged in a
repeating pattern. In meter, when poets write, they
need to count out the number of stressed (strong)
syllables and unstressed (weak) syllables for each
line. They repeat the pattern throughout the poem.

14. Rhyme pertains to the likeness of sounds in
poetry.
Remember if a poem has no rhyme then it's
called a blank verse.

rhyme which can be found at the end of the
lines there's also the rhyme.

The stars above in shimmering light

In the tranquil embrace of its quiet

can be found in between two or more words in a
single line.

18. A poem’s subject is the topic of the poem, or what the poem
is about.
The theme is an idea that the poem expresses about the
subject or uses the subject to explore
Example: “love”, “trust”, or “loss” are subjects.
Theme: “love is dangerous” “you cannot trust people close to
you,” “loss makes you stronger.”

19. Theme is the lesson about life or statement about human nature that the
poem expresses.
– Though related to the concept of a moral, or lesson, themes are usually
more complicated and ambiguous.
– To describe the theme of a poem is to discuss the overarching abstract idea
or ideas being examined in the poem.
– A major theme is an idea that a writer repeats in his work, making it the
most
significant idea in a literary work.
– A minor theme, on the other hand, refers to an idea that appears in a work
briefly and gives way to another minor theme.

20. refers to the writer's attitude towards the subject of a literary work
as indicated in the work itself.
• One way to think about tone in poetry is to consider the
speaker's literal "tone of voice": just as with tone of voice, a poem's
tone may indicate an attitude of joy, sadness, solemnity, silliness,
frustration, anger, puzzlement, etc.

21. Mood or Tone
Tone is what the author feels about the subject . The mood or tone of a poem is
the feeling that the poet creates and that the reader senses through the poet’s
choice of words, rhythm, rhyme,style and structure.

26. Tone, when used in poetry, is the writer’s attitude towards
1. The subject he or she is talking about
2. The audience he or she is addressing in the poem.

27. Dark Me
Jhian Dwight Agustin
The black color dominates,
As the eyes open to see,
The light cease to illuminate,
For whatever needs to be.
As void the feeling of emptiness,
One lives to wish his death.
As I see myself nothing less,
And darkness consumes me red.

28. What could be overall tone of the poem?
• Letting go
• Giving up
• Suicidal

SONNET 116 BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments.
Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

LYCIDAS BY JOHN MILTON
Yet once more, O ye Laurels, and once more
Ye Myrtles brown, with Ivy never-sear,
I com to pluck your Berries harsh and crude,
And with forc'd fingers rude,
Shatter your leaves before the mellowing year.
Bitter constraint, and sad occasion dear,
Compels me to disturb your season due:
For Lycidas is dead, dead ere his prime.

ODE ON A GRECIAN URN By John Keats
Thou still unravish'd bride of quietness,
Thou foster-child of silence and slow time,
Sylvan historian, who canst thus express
A flowery tale more sweetly than our rhyme:
What leaf-fring'd legend haunts about thy shape
Of deities or mortals, or of both,
In Tempe or the dales of Arcady?
What men or gods are these? What maidens loth?
What mad pursuit? What struggle to escape?
What pipes and timbrels? What wild ecstasy?
