Elements of poetry
Poetry is a compact form of literature that packs ideas, feelings, and sounds into carefully chosen words. A poem's form, including its lines and stanzas, adds to its meaning. Poets use techniques like rhyme, rhythm, repetition, and imagery to create different sounds and pictures for the reader. They also employ figurative language such as similes, metaphors, and personification to describe things in new ways and convey the theme or message of the poem. All the elements of poetry work together to create an overall effect for the reader.
