  2. Introduction I will like to teach you an aspect that I find interesting: Rhythm Rhythm is the variation of the length and accentuation of a series of sounds. It is used in all sorts of songs, literature and especially, poems.

  3. Rhythm in Poetry • Poetry uses many kinds of forms and conventions including Rhythm, to suggest alternative meanings and to also produce sensual responses. In a poem Rhythm is used to produce musical incantatory effects. It is formed by the repetition of stressed and unstressed syllables.

  4. Examples “The congo” by Vachel Lindsay Fat black bucks in a wine-barrel room Barrel-house kings, with feet unstable, Sagged and reeled and pounded on the table, Pounded on the table, Beat an empty barrel with the handle of a broom, Hard as they were able Boom, boom, BOOM, With a silk umbrella and the handle of a broom, Boomlay, boomlay, boomlay, BOOM.

  5. Continued • If you read the poem a few times, you will feel a certain feeling and beat. People sometimes repeat the lines or use rhyming words to emphasize rhythm. EX: Barrel-house kings, with feet unstable, Sagged and reeled and pounded on the table, Pounded on the table,

  6. Why I personally like Rhythm I personally like Rhythm because it makes poems and literature much more interesting. Moreover, It produces more depth into each of the words. I also like it because rhythm makes it sound more like music. I enjoy listening to music because it makes different feelings and moods due to the rhythm,.
