The Poetic Elements Of Poetry

The Poetic Elements Of Poetry
What is Poetry?
Poetry is a literary art in which language is used for its aesthetic qualities; that suggests alternative meanings in words and stimulates emotional and
sensuous responses. The use of assonance, alliteration, onomatopoeia, rhythm, ambiguity, symbolism, irony and other poetic elements is common in
poetry. Thus, a poem can be interpreted in a variety of ways using these poetic elements.
According to Mario Klarer (1999), Poetry is one of the oldest genres in literary history. Its earliest examples go back to ancient Greek literature. In
spite of this long tradition, it is harder to define than any other genre. Poetry is closely related to the term "lyric," which derives etymologically from
the Greek musical instrument "Lyra"...show more content...
While one cannot correctly adjudge one definition as superior, better or more comprehensive than another, it is true that each of them has its point of
emphasis which in turn places it in one or the other of the great literary creative debate over content, style, and effect. It is thus clear that Edgar Allan
Poe's conception of poetry as expressed above emphasizes style or form over content and effect while, on the other hand, both William Wordsworth
and Edwin Arlington Robinson focus more attention on content and effect in their definitions to reflect their English and American Romantic
pedigrees respectively. In this regard, you should take particular note of Emily Dickinson's own idea of poetry whose essential criterion is the effect it
has on her and is capable of having on a reader. In a final analysis, one cannot fault any one of these definitions given the special interests and period
fascinations that shape

John Keats Poetic Poet
The poetic life of John Keats is just a period of six years (1814–1820) during which he produced marvelous odes and beautiful poems that rank him as
one of the great English poets. Within a short period of twenty six years, his extraordinary poetic achievement took him to a great height, and today
he is reckoned as one of the most powerful of the romantic poets. He vis known for such beautiful odes like "Ode to a Nightingale", "Ode on a
Grecian Urn", and "To Autumn", and poems like The Fall of Hyperion, Hyperion, Endymion. The year 1814 marked the very beginning of Keats's
poetic life. On May 5, 1816 he got his first poem published in 'The Examiner', edited by Leigh Hunt, which created a great interest...show more

1st I think Poetry should surprise by a fine excess and not by singularity– it should strike the Reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and
appear almost a Remembrance– 2nd Its touches of Beauty should never be halfway thereby making the reader breathless instead of content ....
(Gittings,69–70)
Like Wordsworth Keats too believed in the spontaneity of poetic feelings. Keats, in the same letter wrote the often quoted line: "That if Poetry
comes not as naturally as the Leaves to a tree it had better not come at all."(Gittings,70) This is nothing but the statement of an intellectually matured
person. Abandoning the medical career for the sake of poetry shows Keats's state of mind clearly. After getting a degree and being fully capable in
medical practice, Keats left the profession. He could have earned a handsome amount in that profession. But he gave priority to his thoughts and
feelings and did what his heart wanted him to do. It was not because he was a failure but because he wanted mental solace and this he found only
through poetry. Another reason behind his leaving the medical career, perhaps, was that he wanted to serve the people through his writings, for he
knew that the mental injuries cause lots of harm than that of the physical. His thoughts and ideas are better revealed in his work "The Fall of
Hyperion"1819), where he has defined the role of a poet and pointed out the qualities of the

Essay on Love Poems
Love Poems
Have the love poems, you have read given you a better insight into the emotion of love?
The subject of 'Love Poetry' has given rise to some of the most beautiful and fascinating poetry. The poets illustrate their feelings, or the feelings of the
people concerned with them through the use of figurative language. Alove poem is not necessarily a poem about romantic love, about romance,
marriage and commitment; it could be something else entirely. It seems to be Universal. Timeless. Yet, it's also very individual, filtered by our own
lives and expectations. Love can be a different thing for each one of us. Not all love poems deal with happy positive sides of love but there is also the
negative sides such as pain,...show more content...
'do not grieve' , she does not want her lover to feel that her love is possessive, she does not want him to feel guilty. She wants him to cherish good
times that they had, 'forget and smile'.
The tone throughout is melancholy and emotional as the poet talks about her approaching death. The sonnet form is suitably used because the poet is
telling her husband on how death will take over their love. She accepts death in a philosophical manner. Although she is physically dead she wants to
be remembered.
Christina Rossetti shows us how death can bring a blissful relationship to an end, but she also shows that love can exist even after death if it has
withstood the test of time. She repeats the title 'remember' throughout the poem as a technique to emphasize that she really wants to be remembered.
Poet Rossetti wants to be remembered by her love even if 'darkness and corruption leave'. Yet her love is unselfish.
Here a poem by Christina Rossetti's, 'A Birthday', is a contrast to
'Remember'. Throughout this poem Rossetti expresses happy contented feelings, through her beautiful use of imagery. Nature imagery is used in the
first half of the poem, ' heart is like a singing bird' ,
'heart is like a rainb
The title 'A Birthday' is not represented with love at all, but as we read the poem, we come to know that 'A Birthday' is new life, because she is in love.

We see how love makes a person radiant and blissful.

Poetic Voices : The Poetic Voice
The poetic voice can be scrutinized in all poems. This is because all poetic voices are given a certain personality by the poet; they often incorporate
all devices such as rhyme and figurative language into the poem. Poems have different meanings but can have similarities between poetic voices;
most communicate through this voice as the voice links the reader to the poem. In Dylan Thomas's villanelle Do Not Go Gentle... the poetic voice
is repetitive, an important feature of the villanelle, and wants everyone facing death to "rage against the dying of the light," meaning the poetic
voice doesn't want itself or anyone else to die without a fight. Similarly to Elizabeth Bishop's villanelle, One Art, which visits the idea that "losing
is an art not hard to master" using the same techniques as Do Not Go Gentle. In Christian Rossetti's Remember although a sonnet, the techniques are
comparable, as the poetic voice is also very repetitive. Poets choose to be repetitive as what they repeat will stress the point onto the reader, and if
the reader doesn't take anything away from the poem, the repetition would still stay in their mind after reading it because they will realise that it is
important. Not only are these poetic voices very repetitive but also focus on the idea of loss, in Do Not Go Gentle... the poetic voice cannot face the
loss of the four men in the poem, with each man relating to Thomas' father and, with each going to die, the poetic voice reiterates to the men

Poetry Form Essay
Poems are a form of writing with a set meter. Most poems have an end rhyme scheme to accompany the meter. Poems, like short stories, have symbols.
Although short story symbols were not the easiest to identify, the symbols in poems are sometimes even harder to determine. Poems also include
metaphors, imagery, a certain tone, and always have a set audience. Lyrics are the most obvious type ofpoetry to date. A song has a rhythm and when
the lyrics are sung to the beat a poem is created. Lyrics are not the only form of poetry. There are many different forms poetry can take on. Sonnets
are probably the second most known form of poetry. Sonnets are made up of 14 lines, have end rhyme, and have a meter. There are two main forms of a
sonnet; Shakespearean (English) and Petrarchan (Italian).
The Italian sonnet was created by a man named Petrarch in the 14th century. This sonnet is made up of an octave (8 lines) and a sestet (6 lines)
adding up to the sonnets grand total of 14 lines. A Volta, or dramatic change in the emotion, comes after the octave. The theme of the Petrarchan sonnet
can generally be found within the ending sestet. Two centuries later a new type of sonnet was born. The Shakespearean sonnet was created by none
other than the late William Shakespeare. The English sonnet is made up of three quatrains (4 lines) and an ending couplet (2 lines) creating the iconic
14 lines. The Volta comes after the 3rd quatrain leaving the couplet as the space for the poems theme. Both

The Great Gatsby's Poetic Words
Now, when comparing the lyrics of Rey's song with Fitzgerald's poetic words, two multifaceted parallels can be established, with the surface of these
parallels being Lana's opening lines: "I've seen the world, done it all". Gatsby's mere existence can reasonably be inferred from these seven words.
After all, he had "invented just the sort of Jay Gatsby", had worked as "a clam–digger and a salmon fisher", had sailed the vast oceans on "Dan Cody's
yacht", and had served in the "Seventh Infantry" (98, 99, 47). He had literally "done it all", but as the lyrics are examined once more, Daisy's life can
be inferred with just as much reason. She had had "a three months' trip to the South Seas", had spent time in "Santa Barbara", and had been "popular

Eric Whitacre Poetic Style
Eric Whitacre is an award winning American composer, conductor and speaker, known for his choral, orchestral and wind ensemble music. He is also
known for his "Virtual Choir" projects, bringing individual voices from around the globe together into an online choir. Whitacre is best known for his
choral and instrumental styles use pan–diatonic clusters usually arranged in successively increasing or decreasing density. Whitacre has frequent use of
quartal, quintal, and secundal harmonies, and for his use of unusual chord progressions. His use of rhythm often involves mixed, complex, and/or
compound meters. His pieces include frequent meter changes and rhythmic patterns. One of his trademarks is the use of aleatoric and indeterminate
sections,

Later Showlter, in her work, "A literature of their own" branched off the evolution of a female tradition into three phases and named them as the famine,

The Poem In The Right Word By Imtiaz Dharker
A poem usually contains some exact rules and instructions to get the reader's attention and interest. Imtiaz Dharker wrote the poem "the right word"
which I now will analyze. How does the title seem and what does it mean? Who is the speaker in the poem? How is the poems tone and how is it
changing? What is the theme and which word and literary device are important?
When I first read the title, I did not quite understand what the right word meant and what the right word in the text would be. Now, I understand that
the title got more with struggling to do. People struggle to find the right word to define people and if you mean someone is one thing, then someone
else might think the opposite. In addition, for some people, one person might be...show more content...
Personally, I associate the word terrorist with negative associations like, gloomy and dangerous. If we here about a terrorist lurking in the dark,
people get scared and begin to fear this person. I think most people got associations with terrorists, and mainly in a negative way. When I hear the
word terrorist, I think of a person that did something dangerous and maybe killed a bunch of people.
The poem contains some literary devices. I think one important, in this poem is the door. The door could be a metaphor on an invisible wall in real life
were you do not let people close to you. Maybe you are scared of letting people close, because of earlier experiences in life or because you are
prejudging the person.
I would say this poem is great, it shows a great example on the struggle to find the right word and the problem with prejudging. One word can mean
different things to different people. Media has a big influence on finding the right word and also on how we use different words. Innocent people are
prejudged because they are "different" or come from another country. Metaphors are used and we can connect them to our own

In poetry, each word or line leaves you with an inclination to keep reading to grasp the message and emotion. I think poetry has a loud voice and
you can use poetry to prove a point. The best part of reading poetry is exploring how the artist composes his thoughts that may leave the readers or
audience with a sense of self–reform or with a voice. Poetic literature is an art that inclines the readers to grasp the meaning and the emotion of every
word or lyric the artist has composed. In this research paper, I will select two poems from old to modern as examples and discuss terms of literary details

said it and read it a broken heart I wouldn't let it but here I am again and venting to my friends and spending time on these splendid rhymes for these
hectic times I hate you."
Carreon uses rhyme in this passage. These rhyming words are trickery, decency, mystery, and me. In this first piece Irony is evident. "choosing
terms with an effect of peculiar precision and of combining the terms into phrases with the same effect of peculiar precision and also of combining
sounds with the same effect of peculiar precision" is known as diction (Britannica). "I wish it was history this trickery. It's common decency all it is
to me is an unsolved mystery that always ends in how could you do this to me" and "spending time on these splendid rhymes for these hectic times"
are examples of diction. These phrases impact the message the composer is trying to get though. Many women are hurt by men in relationships and
they may get with somebody new and the same events occur. Metaphors are a figure of speech and they help the reader build a connection with the
meaning of the poem (Writing.com). A metaphor found here is "took my heart and kept it". There is no simile, or symbol in this passage.
"I guess I judged you for your cover and there goes another one. I'm just a girl you got recovering old summers and

Let Her Go Poem Analysis
Many songs have very poetic lyrics and could be a great poem also. The song I chose to compare to a poem and explain why it could stand on its
own as a poem is Let Her Go by Passenger. I chose this song because throughout the song the lyrics consist of many poetic devices. In the song, there
is use of figurative language along with an oxymoron, alliteration and assonance, and end rhymes. The song, Let Her Go, could stand on its own as
poem and make sense. There is an oxymoron and many uses of figurative language in the song Let Her Go. Passenger uses an oxymoron
throughout the song in the chorus again, which also includes the title of the song. The lyric that was used is, "Only know you've been high when
you're feeling low". This is an oxymoron because it contradictory terms, high and low, appear in conjunction with one another. It is also making a
comparison which will be described later. The first use of figurative language in the song is, "Everything you touch surely dies". Passenger uses a
hyperbole in this lyric by making and exaggeration and not speaking of it in realistic terms. Everything anyone touches cannot and will not actually
die, so the song writer uses their first figurative language. The second lyric I found that used figurative language was, "But dreams come slow and
they go so fast" and "Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast". In both lines, personification is being used. They both describe love and dreams as
people or things, saying that they go slow and fast. This is almost as...show more content...
Passenger used alliteration in his lyric, "Only miss the sun when it starts to snow". The repeated use of "s" makes this line an alliteration as an
alliteration is a sentence that uses one letter as the first letter of multiple words in the sentence. This makes it smoother to read and listen to, making it
an important lyric to consider in making it a poem. The other device used was

Poetic Justice Essay
Poetic justice is a prominent theme throughout many genres of literature. The definition of poetic justice is: "an outcome in which vice is punished and
virtue rewarded usually in a manner peculiarly or ironically appropriate" (Poetic Justice). This implies that the ending of the plot and the characters is
deserved – the ending has an ironic twist for the villain, and that justice has been "served." Poetic justice explores the concepts of justice, literary
device, and the philosophy of human satisfaction and interpretations of natural law. A reason why poetic justice is so prominent in literature is
because it satisfies the reader by the belief of karma and consequences of people's actions in society. Justice is a form of human...show more content...
Antigone disobeys Creon and buries Polynices' body, as she believes the punishment in the human realm is miniscule to the reward she will get in
death (Sophocles 181). Creon orders that Antigone be arrested (Sophocles 191). Haemon, Creon's son and Antigone's fiancГ©e, urges his father
to reconsider the law, as the other citizens of Thebes are starting to think poorly of Creon. Creon, however, strongly stands with his decision and
refuses to listen to his son (Sophocles 197). Tiresias, the wise and blind prophet, also urges him to change his mind, as the city of Thebes is
suffering from a plague that Polynices' rotting flesh has caused a bad omen among the city of Thebes, "There was no answering flame; only rank
juice smouldering and sputtering" (Sophocles 209). Creon realizes his mistake but it is too late: Haemon has killed himself (Sophocles 216) .
Creon's wife, Eurydice, kills herself as well after learning about the death of her son (Sophocles 223), leaving Creon alone without a family. Antigone
explores the theme of "poetic justice" by the fate of the characters, as most of them are dead because of suicide. Throughout the course of the play,
Creon battles with Antigone over whether or not Polynices' should have the right to be buried. The moral values of this tragedy suggests that holy law
triumphs over mortal law, excessive pride is a fatal flaw,

A Poem For Get Poetic
Good morning fellow panel members today I have been asked to research and analyse a poem for Get Poetic, which will inspire our target audience
and gain an interest in poetry. Poetry is powerful tool which changes the way people look at the world. I believe the song "We Are Going to Be
Friends." By The White Stripes, is a great song to spark, an interest for poetry in our target audience. This song is about a school child's day and this
song is definitely thought provoking and I am sure it is a suitable choice for Get Poetic.
The White Stripes was an American rock duo formed in 1997, the band consisted of married couple Jack and Megan White. Born on July 9th 1975 in
Detroit Michigan, Jack White was the youngest of ten children. Jack would

The Effects of Form in Poetry Form is important when it comes to literature, especially poetry. It helps keep a certain rhythm or rhyme pattern that
pleases the reader, but it also gives many advantages to the writer. Over many decades in the development of literature, new forms have appeared
because writers like to try new things, but this does not mean that one form is better than the next; each form has its own advantages through the effect
that it gives to the poem because it communicates something that the author specifically chooses to communicate. By comparing John Milton's
'Invocation' from Paradise Lost and Thomas Wyatt's 'The Long Love,' the many advantages will be highlighted by taking a close look at the ideas of
freedom and restraint, the effect of blank verse versus the effect of a sonnet, and literary devices. We will see that each form has a specific purpose
and its own assets. Poets often struggle with the ideas of freedom and restraint through censorship and freedom of expression. A good way for
authors to explore and push the boundaries of these concepts is through form. A writer can either choose to restrict himself by following a strict
pattern in writing like a specific rhyme scheme and metrical foot, while another author can choose to avoid some of these constraints by using what
is called free verse. According to M.H. Abrams, free verse is an "open form" and it is "conversational." Another form of free verse is blank verse,
which is unrhymed, but

Examples Of Poetic Language
Poetic language is the techniques that the poets use it to convey their message. It makes the text creativity by using the feature of it. There are three
approaches that make the texts creativity. (Carter, 1999) identify those three approach; they are cognitive approach, sociocultural approach and
inherency approach. The cognitive approach focuses on what is going on the reader's mind, sociocultural approach deeps on the social issues and how
the language effects on the social, the inherency approach focuses on the language itself. So, the poetic language linked to the inherency model because
it talks about the language, and the poem becomes more literary and creativity. To be the language and the text literary it should breaks the...show more

Elliot. In the first line he describes "April month" as the "cruellest" month and this adjective uses for human not for months. He presents "April" in
unorthodox manner. He uses "and" at the beginning, it is not correct in English to start with "and". Elliot uses the verb (foresuffer) which is in English
wrote "for suffers". The poet creates new words like "Shaggybeared", "Hopkins" has the "Widownmaking", uncliding and unfatehering. Also, there is a
mixing of conjunction between "summer" and "rain", "warm" and "snow", feeling with dried and tubers. There is graphological deviation and rhyme
pattern in 'wind' and 'kind' and 'z' and 'du'. The poem has a full of allusion. It makes the readers think that the poet has past experience of wholeness.
It has lacking the traditional kind of coherent as on observes fragments and allusion. The language of the poem has a lot of images, it is
disorganisation and disorderly. So, "The Burial of the Dead" breaks Paul Grice's maxims. There is ambiguity meaning and new words in it, which are

Dead" has a complex meaning and wrong comparative. All of this deviations and breaking the role of Paul Grice's maxims makes the poem more
literary and creativity, "more complex, more

As a soldier againsts unfairness, King strongly states that people should fight for freedom. Driven by human nature, humans are always chasing

Dharker emphasizes the message of freedom by stating the goal of schoolgirls is gaining "the right to be ordinary" (15). The "ordinary" dream
reveals that the girls want to be treated equally. They want to be able to "go to school" and have the right to chace beauty (18). By using
"ordinary", Dharker demonstrates how little rights girls in Pakistan have (15). As young girls, they are supposed to be free to think, talk, and do
what they want. However, due to the war, oppressive rules of government happen in life, and they have to give up freedom in order to live. Dharker
expresses the desire of being free and determination of perseverance by stating the goal of being "ordinary" (15). She uses another word, "swarm," to
represent the intense of war: "A murmur, a swarm. Behind her,/ one by one, the schoolgirls are standing up" (23–24). Swarm demonstrates that there
are a large number of schoolgirls who are defending freedom. The word "Swarm" illustrates the fierce war by describing the numerous soldiers (23). It
creates a tense tone and indicates the difficulty of holding perseverance. Dharker uses the device of diction to describe both schoolgirls and the enemy
to show that perseverance results in

After doing this, you can then repeat this process with the next two lines until you have a finished poem.
Imagist poetry, in contrast, uses descriptions that narrate what happens during an event or at a certain place with the use of symbols. Symbols can
range from the description of an action, such as marching, to the description of a single person with the use of either appearance or morality.
Additionally, these traits can also be used to describe actions and individuals with more religious sub–tones. Those same religious underpinnings can, in
addition, be used for companies as well as groups with certain, but very strong opinions about others around them. When these symbols are used to
describe a place, a time of day, a person, or a thing, they have the ability to leave not only an impression on the reader, but a feeling. The same result
can be achieved to an even higher degree when talking about the issues of civil rights and with having religious symbolism within the poem itself;
describing a battle between progression and tradition.
Besides the use of symbols in Imagist poetry, another key factor is the usage of simple language instead of having to use the same two writing tools;
those being the abundance of greater detail and rhyme structure. As a result, symbols give the writer this benefit regarding the focus on certain
keywords instead of having to waste time with the
