  1. Simple Rhyming Creative Writing I

  2. Types of Rhyme – Page 30 • End Rhymes - Rhyming of the final words of lines in a poem. • Identical Rhymes -Simply using the same word twice. • Rich Rhymes - Rhyme using two different words that happen to sound the same (i.e. homonyms) – for example “raise” and “raze”.  • Slant /Near Rhymes - Rhyme in which two words share just a vowel sound (assonance – e.g. “heart” and “star”) or in which they share just a consonant sound (consonance – e.g. “milk” and “walk”).  • Sight/Eye Rhymes - Rhyme on words that look the same but which are actually pronounced differently – for example “bough” and “rough”. • Internal Rhymes - Rhyming of two words within the same line of poetry.  • Forced Rhymes – When the author creates a rhyme by forgoing logical grammar/syntax • A good source is rhymezone.com to find rhymes that work. • **DO NOT assume that –tion or –ing endings automatically rhyme!!!!!! • **Avoid overly similar rhymes close together

  3. Heroic Couplet

  6. Warning! Warning! Warning! Warning! • When using a simple rhyme over and over, you MUST be careful not to let it sound sing-songy ! • To avoid this, USE these methods: • Enjambment – breaking the line • Caesura – a pause of punctuation mid line – usually near center of syllables • To change things up as some authors do, you may use different types of rhyme, but label them along with the rhyme scheme when/if you do. • Again– DO NOT force your rhymes!!!! • This means changing your syntax (word order) or verb tense to make things rhyme while making the line make less sense.

  7. Your Couplet Poem – the Voices in your Head • Teacher, woman, daughter, friend, poet, bibliophile, sister, aunt, feminist, devil’s advocate, Canadian, etc. • Devil’s advocate and friend – when discussing becomes arguing • Make a list of the different groups you belong to. (the voices in your head) • Select two of these voices which conflict with each other in a specific situation • Create a poem that highlights an argument between these two voices regarding their area of overlap.

  9. Triplet Examples The Eagle Alfred Lord Tennyson Alice's poem By Lewis Carroll A boat, beneath a sunny sky Lingering onward dreamily In an evening of July— Children three that nestle near, Eager eye and willing ear, Pleased a simple tale to hear— Long has paled that sunny sky: Echoes fade and memories die: Autumn frosts have slain July. • He clasps the crag with crooked hands; • Close to the sun in lonely lands, • Ringed with the azure world, he stands. • The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls; • He watches from his mountain walls, • And like a thunderbolt he falls.

  12. Terza Rima

  13. Terza Rima Examples Acquainted with the Night Robert Frost Ode to the West Wind PErcy Bysshe Shelley O wild West Wind, thou breath of Autumn's being, Thou, from whose unseen presence the leaves dead Are driven, like ghosts from an enchanter fleeing, Yellow, and black, and pale, and hectic red, Pestilence-stricken multitudes: O thou, Who chariotest to their dark wintry bed The wingèd seeds, where they lie cold and low, Each like a corpse within its grave,until Thine azure sister of the Spring shall blow Her clarion o'er the dreaming earth, and fill (Driving sweet buds like flocks to feed in air) With living hues and odours plain and hill: Wild Spirit, which art moving everywhere; Destroyer and Preserver; hear, O hear! • I have been one acquainted with the night.I have walked out in rain -- and back in rain.I have outwalked the furthest city light.I have looked down the saddest city lane.I have passed by the watchman on his beatAnd dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.I have stood still and stopped the sound of feetWhen far away an interrupted cryCame over houses from another street,But not to call me back or say good-bye;And further still at an unearthly height,A luminary clock against the skyProclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right.I have been one acquainted with the night.
