How to improve this skill?
What is poetry?
• Why is it written?
• How do we use poetry?
• YOU WILL BE ASKED to give a
definition of what poetry is to you before
you leave class today.
• TO ME, poetry is about choices and
reflection.
Poetry is about choice and
reflection.
• We choose our words carefully.
• Fewer words in a poem than in a fiction, nonfiction
text.
• Conserve words and space in a poem
• Poetry requires reflection.
• Poetry asks the poet to see the world through new eyes.
• How you see the world is TOTALLY different than
how I see the world.
• TODAY…we will hear, see and discuss 3 examples.
Types of Poetry
1. Concrete Poetry/ Imagist- the words create the symbol
2. Ars Poetica- a poem about poetry
3. Ballad/Lyric Poetry- usually rhymed, song-like
4. Sonnet (Shakespearean and Petrarchan)
Concrete Poetry
• The poem resembles the
theme, or a subject of
the poem.
• Concrete poetry is also
just like taking a picture
of a scene.
• “Red Wheelbarrow” by
William Carlos
Williams

SONNET
Is it for fear to wet a widow's eye
That thou consumest thyself in single life?
Ah! if thou issueless shalt hap to die.
The world will wail thee, like a makeless wife;
The world will be thy widow and still weep
That thou no form of thee hast left behind,
When every private widow well may keep
By children's eyes her husband's shape in mind.
Look, what an unthrift in the world doth spend
Shifts but his place, for still the world enjoys it;
But beauty's waste hath in the world an end,
And kept unused, the user so destroys it.
No love toward others in that bosom sits
That on himself such murderous shame commits.
EPIC
• Long, narrative poem (meaning it tells a story of a
journey)
• Usually LONG and uses Greek heroes, gods, and
other feats of strength.
• Homer’s Odyssey and Iliad are strong examples.
