  2. POETRY: THE ART OF MAKING POEMS “THE SPONTANEOUS OVERFLOW OF POWERFUL FEELINGS; IT TAKES ITS ORIGIN FROM EMOTION RECOLLECTED IN TRANQUILITY.” -WILLIAM WORDSWORTH POEM: TEXTS WITH CHARGED, COMPRESSED LANGUAGE CONVEY AN EXPERIENCE, AN EMOTION, OR SIMPLY AN AESTHETICALLY PLEASING ARRANGEMENT OF WORDS

  3. The Human Brain • Divided into 2 parts • Each half has its own function Right Brain: Creativity Emotions Left Brain: Logic Reality

  4. To clarify . . . When you are looking at big puffy clouds . . . Your right brain tells you, “Hey! That one looks like a bunny.” While your left brain tells you . . .

  5. It’s a cloud, Stupid!

  6. So, which half do you use when studying poetry? Here are a few hints: • Poetry requires creativity • Poetry requires emotion • Poetry requires an artistic quality • Poetry requires logic Survey says . . .

  7. both

  8. For the Left Brain: Recognizing certain devices used within a poem will give the left brain something to concentrate on. We’ll start with the sound devices:

  9. My Beard by Shel Silverstein My beard grows to my toes, I never wears no clothes, I wraps my hair Around my bare, And down the road I goes. RHYME The repetition of sounds Example: hat, cat, brat, fat, mat, sat Here is another example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGrcdq2viZg

  10. RHYTHM The beat When reading a poem out loud, you may notice a sort of “sing-song” quality to it, just like in nursery rhymes. This is accomplished by the use of rhythm. Rhythm is broken into seven types. • Iambic • Anapestic • Trochaic • Dactylic • Monosyllabic • Spondaic • Accentual Less Common Most Used

  11. These identify patterns of stressed and unstressed syllables in a line of poetry. That means one syllable is pronounced stronger, and one syllable is softer. iambic: unstressed anapestic: stressed trochaic: dactylic:

  12. LITERARY DEVICES

  13. SIMILE A FIGURE OF SPEECH THAT MAKES A COMPARISION BETWEEN TWO UNLIKE THINGS, USING LINKING WORDS: LIKE,AS, SUCH AS, AND HOW

  14. ____asdisgustingas___________ • ____asmessyas_______________ • ____as excitingas____________ • ____swiftlike________________ • ____wrinklylike____________ • ____beautifullike__________

  15. METAPHOR A FIGURE OF SPEECH THAT MAKES AN EMPHASIZED COMPARISION BETWEEN TWO UNLIKE THINGS WITHOUT THE USE OF LIKEOR AS EXAMPLE: MUSIC IS A JOY FILLING MY HEART WITH BEATS MUSIC IS A FLAME FILLING MY EARS WITH HEAT MUSIC IS MY SOUL MUSIC MAKES ME WHOLE

  16. CREATE 5 SENTENCES THAT CONTAIN METAPHORS • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeTnog5RRQo&feature=player_detailpage “ The new moon rode high in the crown of the metropolis…..”

  17. MAKING MEANING OF METAPHOR • IDENTIFY THE CENTRAL METAPHOR IN THE VERSE AND EXPLAIN HOW THE TWO UNLIKE THINGS ARE BEING COMPARED TO ONE ANOTHER TO ILLUSTRATE THE SPEAKER’S POINT.

  18. 2. GOOD METAPHORS PUT VERY CLEAR AND MEMORABLE PICTURES IN THE READER’S HEAD.WHAT PICTURE IS GIVEN IN LINES 8-10, AND WHAT DO THESE PICTURES STAND FOR METAPHORICALLY? 3. EXPLAIN HOW YOU BELIEVE THE SPEAKER OF THE POEM FEELS ABOUT NEW YORK? WHY?

  19. ALLITERATION

  20. THE REPETITION OF THE SAME OR SIMILAR CONSONANT SOUNDS AT THE BEGINNING OF WORDS THAT ARE CLOSE TOGETHER EXAMPLE: BRAZEN BELLS! WHAT A TALE OF TERROR, NOT THEIRTURBULENCYTELLS! -EDGAR ALLEN POE

  21. Picture Puzzle Piece by Shel Silverstein One picture puzzle pieceLyin' on the sidewalk,One picture puzzle pieceSoakin' in the rain.It might be a button of blueOn the coat of the womanWho lived in a shoe.It might be a magical bean,Or a fold in the redVelvet robe of a queen.It might be the one little biteOf the apple her stepmotherGave to Snow White.

  22. It might be the veil of a brideOr a bottle with some evil genie inside.It might be a small tuft of hairOn the big bouncy bellyOf Bobo the Bear.It might be a bit of the cloakOf the Witch of the WestAs she melted to smoke.It might be a shadowy traceOf a tear that runs down an angel's face.Nothing has more possibilitiesThan one old wet picture puzzle piece.

  23. HYPERBOLE A FIGURE OF SPEECH THAT USES INCREDIBLE EXAGGERATION, OR OVERSTATEMENT, FOR EFFECT. “I PULLED UP WITH A MILION TRUCKS- LOOKIN’, SMELLIN’, FEELING LIKE A MILLION BUCKS” -LUDACRIS
