  9. The best way to determine rhythm is to speak the poem.Any volunteers?

Flowing or choppy? -Does it sound like anything familiar? -Are there any patterns or is it random?

  10. Refrain • Repeated line or group of words in a poem. • Like a chorus. • Adds importance to the words repeated. • Helps the phrase stick in your mind.

  11. SPOT THE REFRAIN! “It was not I that ate the pie” Bobby said that he would give me his right shoeFor a piece of the sweet treatAnd I thought that it would be nice to have another shoeBut no,It was not I that ate that pie Jimmy caught a sniff while sneaking thorugh our yard He would give me a fistful of mice for just one sliceI told him I needed a left shoe,But no,It was not I that ate that pie Then Mary walked by my door,I told her she could test the restFor the the smallest peck,But no,It was not I that ate that pie.

  12. Subject In poetry, the subject is basically what we’re talking about. It is the idea or thing the poet is concerned with. Some poems have multiple subjects. How is this different than theme? Subject can be one word. Theme is the moral or lesson. The subject is what the moral or lesson is about!

(b) I fondly ask; but Patience to prevent (a)That murmur, soon replies, "God doth not need (c) Either man's work or his own gifts; who best (d) Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state (e)Is Kingly. Thousands at his bidding speed (c) And post o'er land and ocean without rest; (d) They also serve who only stand and wait." (e)
