IMAGERY To Autumn – John Keats Until they think warm days will never cease, For summer has o’er- brimm’d their clammy cells. Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy store? Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find Thee sitting careless on a granary floor, Thy hair soft-lifted by the winnowing wind; Or on a half- reap’d furrow sound asleep
IMAGERY Rain In summer – H.W.LongFellow They silently inhale the clover-scented gale, And the vapors that arise From the well-watered and smoking soil

Activity: Identify the Rhyme Scheme Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening BY ROBERT FROST Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow. My little horse must think it queer To stop without a farmhouse near Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year.
POETRY Poetry, the highest form of literature, influences us because it shows different shades of human beings. It expresses different feelings such as friendship, love, death and other human emotions.
ELEMENTS OF POETRY There are many ways to kill a cat, same with writing a poem. There are many elements to be considered, and it's up to us how we will make use of them.
Petrarchan Sonnet The Petrarchan sonnet rhyme scheme is similar in some aspects, but it uses repetition differently. These poems follow a rhyme scheme of ABBAABBACDCDCD. While the first eight lines (ABBAABBA) are always the same, the last six can change. Other popular endings to these poems include patterns like CDECDE and CDEEDC. It is all up to the poet whether they choose to add in another rhyming ending or in what order these endings come in.
Petrarchan Sonnet Example ‘Whoso List to Hunt’ by Sir Thomas Wyatt is one of the best-known examples of a Petrarchan sonnet . These lines follow the Petrarchan or Italian sonnet form and discuss the obsessive pursuit of a “hind,” or female deer. This deer (a symbol for a woman) is always out of reach. The speaker tells the listener they are welcome to give the hunt a go, but it is really useless. No one is going to be able to catch her.
Shakespearean Sonnet The first, the Shakespearean sonnet , follows the rhyme scheme of ABABCDCDEFEFGG. These lines take a reader through a problem (usually in the first eight or twelve lines) and then present a solution in the final six or two lines, depending on the poem. There are a few moments within the 154 sonnets that Shakespeare wrote over his lifetime where he deviated from this pattern, but they are few and far between.
Shakespearean Sonnet Example Although there are many wonderful and famous Shakespearean poems, ‘Sonnet 18,’ also know as ‘Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?’ is perhaps the best-loved. This poem conforms to the rhyme scheme that Shakespeare is known for ABABCDCDEFEFGG and uses iambic pentameter . In it, the speaker describes the Fair Youth as better than even the best parts of summer. He is “more lovely and more temperate.” His face is like an “eternal summer” because he has been immortalized in Shakespeare’s poetry.
