Haiku
A haiku consists of 3 lines and 17 syllables.
Line 1—5 syllables
Line 2—7 syllables
Line 3—5 syllables
Example:
Limerick
The first line of a limerick poem usually begins with
'There was a....' and ends with a name, person or
place.
The last line of a limerick is normally a little farfetched
or unusual.
First autumn morning
the mirror I stare into
shows my father's face.
- Murakami Kijo
Acrostic
An acrostic poem is a type of poetry where the first,
last or other letters in a line spell out a particular word
or phrase. The most common and simple form of an
acrostic poem is where the first letters of each line
spell out the word or phrase.
Example: Sun shines bright
A limerick should have a rhyme scheme of aabba.
This means lines 1,2 and 5 rhyme and lines 3 and 4
rhyme.
Also, lines 1,2 and 5 should have 7 – 10 syllables and
lines 3 and 4 should have 5 – 7 syllables.
Example: 'There was an old man with a beard
Who said, 'It is just as I feared,
Two owls and a hen
A lark and a wren
Ode
Odes use similes, metaphors and sometimes a
technique called hyperbole (exaggeration).
Up in the sky
My family goes to the beach
Melting in the heat
Example:
Ode to my Pen
Pound for pound me and my pen,
are the best pair to be found.
Free Verse
A Free Verse is poetry written with rhymed or
unrhymed verse that has no set meter to it.
Example: Dogs
I like dogs.
Dogs aren't shy and really should know why.
They can be a watch dog.
They are really the kind to play with.
A dog can also be your friend.
You can stand them up all day,
and we will knock them down.
I cannot take the credit,
cause I know for sure its him.
With his sleek chromatic style,
full of ink and slim.
He moves my hand to cross the t's,
and lies while doting i's.
And the words he puts on paper slim,
