Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by timpaker(m): 2:47pm On Nov 03, 2014 |
noble4d: You may be right bro but from what I have read about a Diamente is that, the purpose is to go from the subject at the top of the diamond or lozenge to another totally different (and sometimes opposite) subject at the bottom written in seven lines of diamond shape. i.e. The First line - a word (NOUN) - A Second line - two ADJECTIVES - A Third line - three GERUNDS-A (verb + -ing) Fourth line - two NOUNS-A + two NOUNS-B Fifth line - three GERUNDS-B (verb + -ing) Sixth line - two ADJECTIVES-B and Seventh - One NOUN - B http://www.readwritethink.org/classroom-resources/student-interactives/diamante-poems-30053.html This is the Diamente I know designed by Iris Tiedt, the one you talking about should be the old school Diamente 1 Like |

joseph1832: Spoken word is a form of poetry that often uses alliterated prose or verse and occasionally uses metered verse to express social commentary. Traditionally it is in the first person, is from the poet’s point of view and is themed in current events. This poetry is written and performed for an audience, and tends to demonstrate free flow rhymes, rhythms, word play, poetic phrases and also slangs. Feel free to ask questions@ Joseph noble cares . |

ahika: Senryu differ from haiku. A senryu also called (human haiku) is an unrhymed Japanese verse that only capture some aspect of human nature and emotions...while an haiku also called nature or seasonal haiku) can be written with rhymes or without rhymes. It can be written on so many themes from love to nature. The rhymes of haiku can either be of the following: aab or aba. e.g... Rhyming haiku- aba. Beans Beans are kind to hearts. I like to eat them daily And then do big farts! noble cares. |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by noble4d(m): 12:33am On Nov 10, 2014 |
ahika: you wrote a Shakespearean sonnet. you can as well separate the three quatrains from the rhyming couplet for better understanding. e.g Though I am at rest I know my momentum will soon wing me Laxity my guest Get ready to flee 'Cos my latent energy Is sitting on a time bomb My next poem will be an elegy That is, if your acceleration is dumb. Go with your convoy But leave your nephew Peace With her I can have Joy And in joy shall I birth my master piece. Go with the speed of light That I may have the wit to write.
