Poetry

• Poetry is literature that uses a few words to tell about ideas, feelings and paints a picture in the reader´s mind.

• Most poems were written to be read aloud.

• Poems may or may not rhyme.


Form

•The form of a poem is the way that it looks on the page.


PoeTRY AttitudeWhat Bugs Me

When my teacher tells me to write a poem.

When my mother tells me to clean up my room.

When my sister practices her violin while I’m watching TV.

When my father tells me to turn off the TV and do my homework.

When my brother picks a fight with me and I have to go to bed early.

When my School Principal obliges me to pray in the morning assembly.

When English Literature does not pick me when I know the answer.

When….

When my teacher asks me to get up in front of the class and

read the poem I wrote on the school bus.


Figurative Language and other poetic devices

• Figurative language• Simile• Metaphor• Hyperbole• Idiom• Personification


Figurative Language

• Words and phrases that help the reader picture things in a new way.

Example:She heard music when he kissed her.


Imagery• Words or phrases that appeal to

the five senses: sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch.

• Imagery is what helps you paint a picture or imagine what is happening or what the poet is feeling.

• Example: The hamburgers sizzled on the grill……


Simile

• A comparison of two things using the words like or as.

Her smile was bright like the sun!The peach was as delicious as a kiss.My dog is as mean as a snake.


Metaphor

• A comparison of two things WITHOUT using “as or like”

• His face is a puzzle to me, I can never figure out what he is thinking.


Personification

• Giving an animal or an object human qualities.

• My dog smiles at me.• The house glowed with happiness.• The car was irritated when she

pumped it full of cheap gas.


Tone

• The writer's attitude toward his readers and his subject; his mood or moral view. A writer can be formal, informal, playful, ironic, and especially, optimistic or pessimistic.


Assonance• Repeated VOWEL sounds in a line or

lines of poetryExamples of ASSONANCE:“Slow the low gradual moan came in the

snowing.”- John Masefield

“Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep.”

- William Shakespeare


Symbolism• When a

person, place, thing, or event that has meaning in itself also representsor stands for something else.

= Innocence

= America

=Peace


Idiom

• An expression where the literal meaning of the words is not the meaning of the expression. It means something other than what it actually says.

• Ex. It’s raining cats and dogs.


Hyperbole

• Obvious and intentional exaggeration• EX: There are a million people in

here!• I could sleep for a year!• I have a ton of homework tonight!


No Where Near the End!!!• There is so much more to

poetry....we have only scratched the surface.....

• Let´s try now, Haiku..your royal majesty coming from the Japanese bamboo and “Jomon-Wo”dynasties.

Haiku is one of the most important forms oftraditional Japanese poetry. Haiku is a 17

syllable verse form consisting of three metricalunits of 5, 7, and 5 syllables.

Syllable counts are often ignored when written inother languages, but the basic form of threeshort lines, with the middle line slightly longerthan the other two is usually observed.

Haiku


-Haiku provides a tiny lens through which to glimpse the

miracle and mystery of life.-Haiku is a Japanese form of poetry usually about nature. It has a certain pattern that does not rhyme. It usually describes something in nature like: flowers, trees, animals, seasons & weather.

• Very Short: just three lines (usually fewer than • twenty syllables long). •• Descriptive: most haiku focus sharply on a detail • of nature or everyday life. •• Personal: most haiku express a reaction to or • reflection on what is described. •• Divided into two parts. The turning point, often • marked by a dash or colon, shifts the • intent from description to reflection or • from close-up to a broader perspective

SYLLABICATION: also syllabification. The division of a word into syllables: either phonologically, in terms of speech sounds, or orthographically, in terms of letters.

SYLLABLE: The smallest unit of speech that normally occurs in isolation, consisting of either a vowel alone or a combination ofvowel and consonant(s) A syllable standing alone is a monosyllable, and may be a word in its own right, as with a, an, big, cat, no, the, yes. A word containing many syllables is a polysyllable or polysyllabic word, such as selectivity and utilitarianism. A disyllable or disyllabicword has two syllables, a trisyllable or trisyllabic word has three.

Syllabication


• Basic Syllable Rules

1. To find the number of syllables: ---count the vowels in the word, ---subtract any silent vowels, (like the silent "e" at the end of a word or the second vowel when two vowels a together in a syllable) ---subtract one vowel from every dipthong, (diphthongs only count as one vowel sound.) ---the number of vowels sounds left is the same as the number of syllables. The number of syllables that you hear when you pronounce a word is the same as the number of vowels sounds heard. For example: The word "came" has 2 vowels, but the "e" is silent, leaving one vowel sound and one syllable. The word "outside" has 4 vowels, but the "e" is silent and the "ou" is a diphthong which counts as only one sound, so this word has only two vowels sounds and therefore, two syllables.

Syllabication


2. Divide between two middle consonants. Split up words that have two middle consonants. For example: hap/pen, bas/ket, let/ter, sup/per, din/ner, and Den/nis. The only exceptions are the consonant digraphs. Never split up consonant digraphs as they really represent only one sound. The exceptions are "th", "sh", "ph", "th", "ch", and "wh".

3. Usually divide before a single middle consonant. When there is only one syllable, you usually divide in front of it, as in: "o/pen", "i/tem", "e/vil", and "re/port". The only exceptions are those times when the first syllable has an obvious short sound, as in "cab/in".

Syllabication


• 4. Divide before the consonant before an "-le" syllable. When you have a word that has the old-style spelling in which the "-le" sounds like "-el", divide before the consonant before the "-le". For example: "a/ble", "fum/ble", "rub/ble" "mum/ble" and "thi/stle". The only exception to this are "ckle" words like "tick/le".

• 5. Divide off any compound words, prefixes, suffixes and roots which have vowel sounds. Split off the parts of compound words like "sports/car" and "house/boat". Divide off prefixes such at "un/happy", "pre/paid", or "re/write". Also divide off suffixes as in the words "farm/er", "teach/er", "hope/less" and "care/ful". In the word "stop/ping", the suffix is actually "-ping" because this word follows the rule that when you add "-ing" to a word with one syllable, you double the last consonant and add the "-ing".

Syllabication


1-The word “remainder” has...

a. six syllables

b. four syllables

c. five syllables

d. three syllables

e. two syllables

Look at this question again..... the word remainder has... 3 syllables.

this word has four vowels but the 'i' is silent. that leaves us with three vowel

sounds. the number of vowel sounds=the number of syllables.

Syllabication in Haiku

See the red berries Fallen like little footprints On the garden snow.

Discussions about how to preserve the structure of the haiku have taken place in different arenas. Modern Haiku writers do not agree in writing the haiku with the symmetry of 5-7-5 syllables total 17 syllables. They claimed that Haiku is used to express a specific moment of inspiration about nature rather than following a preestablished pattern. It is fundamental to keep the essence of the Haiku though. In japanese, the rules for how to write Haiku are clear, and will not be discussed in our literature class. In foreign languages, there exist NO consensus in how to write Haiku-poems. Anyway, let's take a look at the basic knowledge:
