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.
