A Metaphor is the comparison between two objects.



Ex: Death is a day.

Metaphors are important in poetry because they are a form
of figuritive language and gives you a chance to think about
the needing of a poem or story.


An Extended Metaphor is a comparison of multiple objects.



Ex:

He is the pointing gun, we are the bullets of his desire.

All the world's a stage and men and women merely players.

Let me count my loves of thee, my rose garden, my heart,

my fixed mark, my beginning and my end.

Extended metaphors are important in poetry, because they

are like metaphors they are a form

of figuritive language and gives you a chance to think about
the needing of a poem or story.

The Tone is the strength of the story or the quality of the reading.
 

Ex: being happy, sad, or angry, etc while reading.

Tone is important in a poem because it gives you a
certain vibe that goes with the poem or story.

Repetition is a reapeating word in a poem.


Ex:

Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall;
All the King's horses and all the King's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again

From Mother Goose

Repetition is mportant in poety, because it gives

more emphasis for the person who is reading it or speaking aloud.

An Interpretation is a way of how a person thinks about a story or a poem

Ex: The Girl thought the picture was about the kid fixing the puzzle.

The Interpretation is important because if there was no Interpretation then the person wouldn't think about the story or poem.

Couplet

Stanza

Stanza

Definition:A Paragraph in a Poem.

Example:

I Love To Write Poems

(First Stanza)

I love to write
Day and night
What would my heart do
But cry, sigh and be blue
If I could not write

(Second Stanza)

Writing feels good

And I know it should

Who could have knew

That what I do

Is write, write, write

Significance:

Stanzas pause a poem by a dash,concept or idea, which allows readers to rest, think, analyze, and interpret what they just read. If a poem doesn't have stanzas, would mean ideas and concepts aren't separate, then the poem would be very boring and confusing for readers to understand.

Poetry

Definition: A work of art or sentence that rhymes or doesnt rhyme. I also think it is people's thoughts spoken aloud. Poetry also expresses feelings including happiness, sadness, romance, etc.
