Nowadays, our there are many dangers and challenges around us especially in the news where most of the topics seems to be about tragedies, disasters and controversies. Not just in newspapers, but in media vehicles such as the internet, mobile phones, TV and radio. With all these happening around us, we can read joyful poems to help bring back the goodness in our lives.
Poems are made up of words used to express ideas or emotions conveyed through usage of imagery, sound patterns, and metaphors. These are composed in verses rather than in prose. Elements such as lines and stanzas, rhythm, voice, form, figure of speech, sound and so on, adds to the beauty of these literary works.
One element, which is the form, is usually very flexible when it comes to modern poetry than previous ones and is less structured in the contemporary times. However, it is easily distinguishable from proses which because it still has the basic structure of its form and it is found in nearly all free verse. Even classic styles do not conform strictly to the standards so that can create emphasis and effects in their works.
It has three primary types, which are narrative, descriptive, and lyric poems, with other subtypes such as haiku, ballads, limericks, free verse, sonnets, epics, odes, and many more. Lines of word that are grouped together are known as stanzas and they are separated by a space or an empty line, which is similar to a paragraph in a story or any written composition. Though stanzas are usually made of the same amount of lines, it is not necessary to have stanzas.
The effect of a poem can be enhanced by using sound patterns, which is a complicated in itself. Some examples are rhyme, repetition, refrain, alliteration, resonance, consonance, onomatopoeia, and euphony. The most common and basic among them is rhyme in which the syllable at the tip of each line sounds alike or similar.
The oral pattern created when stressing a certain syllable in every line is called the rhythm. Metric is the measurement unit of these stress patterns though it can only be demonstrated when it is read aloud. Since it has stresses in certain syllables, it will not sound like a steady hum of words rather it creates different tones because of the rising and falling of the voice almost like singing.
Figurative language is how your choose your words to make a comparison between different things, senses, and even emotions by using the figures of speech. Some of these are metaphor, hyperbole, personification, allegory, irony, and symbolism. On the other hand, imagery is how words are used to convey sensory experiences in vivid detail to create a concrete mental image of the subject.
These details include experiences in the sense of touch, smell, taste, sound, and sight that is beyond any normal description. A voice refers to the presentation of the author of his work to the audience when speaking, which is either third or first person. Most of the poems has the writer as the one speaking, yet there are many times that the character and the author are not the same person.
Tone refers to the way the author present his work in terms of the feel of the work or towards the subject. It can indicate a feeling of happiness, sadness, confusion, amusement, anger, and other emotions. As such, joyful poems can bring feeling of hope, love and happiness.
