If I was a poem ill come in different forms
Depending on how you say me
I will have emotions flowing
When lyrics come together that’s when I’m born
Hypothetically speaking only id I was a poem
Ok I am a poem and here is some of my family
Let me introduce he to ballad because he tells stories
Haiku is just some Japanese poetry
Typically characterized by three qualities
Concrete, shape and visual
Poetic elements, line length, punctuation and syllables
Is all needed for me to feel completed
Because I am a poem and you know the list goes on
So how about alliteration or how about repition
That’s when you repeat the word or sound
that you constantly making
Then its onamtopeia a figurative language
And rhyme scheme
Keep you rhyming and saying things like
HOOK
If I was a poem ill come in different forms
Depending on how you say me
I will have emotions flowing
When lyrics come together that’s when I’m born
Hypothetically speaking only id I was a poem
Remember I’m a poem
And I brought a couple friends
Lyrical is a short poem that expresses feelings
Free verse is a type of poem that doesn’t rhyme
And a couplet rhyme but it states one idea using two lines
Can’t forget about sonnet it has fourteen line
Limerick is humorous but only five line
Blank verse contains fourteen syllables
I introduced you to my friends
Now practice them like rituals
Add symbolism as simple as a symbol
Tone and emotion it’s all about that feeling
Main idea the message you giving
Because if you don’t move the crowd
Then no snaps at the ending
HOOK
If I was a poem ill come in different forms
Depending on how you say me
I will have emotions flowing
When lyrics come together that’s when I’m born
Hypothetically speaking only id I was a poem
