samflexxy: Yes Bro. Most of the archaic and modern forms of poetry has rhymes. E.g Shakespearean, italian , and French sonnet. |

joseph1832: If you know how to use punctuations in your essay then placing them in poetry won't be a problem. |

Hi Noble,in your sonnet lesson you said the lines of a sonnet always come in 10 syllables. Does it make it less of a sonnet if the lines are not in iambic pentameter? Ayamlaykorn noble4d |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by noble4d(m): 12:37pm On Nov 28, 2014 |
OMA4U: Nice one Bro. But you should endeavor to structure your poem well. Using sestet and quatrain or octave and quatrain. |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by noble4d(m): 12:44pm On Nov 28, 2014 |
laykorn: Hallo laykorn, iambic pentameter in sonnet is not compulsory but is Good cos it makes it more of sonnet and beautiful. Each lines of a sonnet must be 10 syllables long. |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by Nobody: 12:47pm On Nov 28, 2014 |
noble4d:Okay sir. I wanted to say syllables not paragraphs. It was a typo. The first week assignments will be submitted tomorrow sir. I hope you and timpaker would be on ground to judge the best. Ayamlaykorn |

noble4d:That is all I need to hear. |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by joseph1832(m): 10:48pm On Dec 03, 2014 |
Noble4d please I need your thoughts on this. Can you call this a poem?. In brightest day In blackest night No evil shall escape my sight Let those who worship evil's might Beware my power, Green lantern's light. 1 Like 1 Share |

joseph1832: I'll call it a poem. If it wasn't for the break, I'd have termed it a 'prose poetry. But basically, I see a form of poetry known as 'Light poetry' organized in a 'Quintain (or quintet)'. Light in this context means that it is brief. Again, I also identified alliterations in line 4 & 5 (though, the alliteration isn't heavy) but the rhyme scheme of ABBBB is quite adventurous. The unpopular rhyming scheme of ABBBB used made it impossible for me to term it with another form other than this, but I'm quite certain that it is a Light poetry. |

timpaker:Cool!. Nice to know the guys at Warner Bros. appreciate poetry. The piece is recited by the DC comic character's 'The Green Lantern Corp'. I remembered it and decided to ask because of the rhyme there. Thanks a lot bro. |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by joseph1832(m): 7:14pm On Dec 04, 2014 |
What about this: "With blood and rage of crimson red, Ripped from a corpse so freshly dead, Together with our hellish hate, We'll burn you all - that is your fate!". Tag: Timpaker Noble4d |

On his madness. 'Two As' and seven Bs'?, 'This is poor!', prologued he. Darting eyes met his, in contort apprehension. My heart fled,took refuge beneath the Olumos', leaving my brain to take over the mess I was sound struck,silent noise deafened my thoughts as my brain PAUSED.. 'PLAY!',he said, his voice wrappingly flew, visiting his brain box to stab me with words, he stammered, 'your pl...ay is too much! My heart returned, sourced the rivulet from my human lake and taking solitude in my stomach..it beat to dad's tune,taping "the worms" to warful dance.. As my old man's tone increased, from soprano he did the bass..how he played carelessly. 'I see!',he stood, his paunch nodded in mocking agreement as if to say'what a foolish boy'. The result sheet fell,took a brisk air tossing to avoid being torn. 'This result is poor!, boy', came the starting point. I have seen that look once, inquired my eyes. Tired of using bass,he unleashed the key point in an instance. "OPERATION MADNESS" "our husband has gone mad", again came the thought,education was too much! I'm sorry dad, I.......I never finished those words before lightning struck on my face, my lucky tooth shifted, irked my inspiration as I protested but the protest was late as the thunder roared, 'are you mad? Dirty transparent teardrops eschewed from my lids,kissed my lips and took my chin. Seems 'twas going to be a "Thunderstorm"afterall, because neighbours were now flocking in confused noise in front of our door, "forecasting the weather. 'Do I pay your fees for such results! ehn? Lightning struck again, followed by the thunder tears pelted down my eyes,soaked the satin rug and flowed to flooded streams. We toured the house in foreign noise, on the settee, on the bed in my room under the table beneath we rolled,in emphatic stress, dad caesurically mad. My heart bled, fortified my hatred for the darling miss, did she sing my ode 'your parents will be so proud of you, what an excellent result' My grin shun,outdid the sparkling glee on the Milky ways. Darling muse I thought as I rapped in tuneless shrieks on the Orthopaedic bed. Dad in chains at the psyches, mum got him his favorite book "On his madness" 'twas then the true theory of constance dawned on me 'The thunder and lightning aren't everyday but the sky is up there everyday. And the sky is my ceiling. |

IF I CONTROL TIME I would go back to the times,you had dos cute smiles/ I would let out those feelings I used to hide Behind dos looks, smiles/ I 'would not act Lime',so I'd 'stop my teeth from biting' my lips!! I would let my words incline/ If only I knew you wouldn't decline/ If only I knew yours was in its prime. If I control time/ I would go back to the times we spent together/ Dos times wen in summer like jack and jill,d hills we went together/ And shared d blanket in a colder weather/ To the times You wrap your warm hands around mine/ Promisin never to let me go,be alone or cold,you even said WALAI!!/ If I control time Dis moment my heart 'break fast',wouldn't 'lunch' dis day to dine!! Staring at d engraved inscription/ Memories dat entails your description/ trails back into my mind,takes away my diction/ Dumb n numb,thoughts elude through a slow track/ My heart tumbles into my stomach/ D strands of hair stand firm/ The terror tangles itself with fear/ Dat moment I had your dead eyes on mine/ Cold hands on mine/ I felt dead too,havin such cold feet/ Waves of death encompassed me/ Your lifeless body on lied on my hands,so feeble/ D grim snatched Your soul from me/ If I control time I would alter d creation of d grim reaper/ If I control time You would still be me sweetheart/ If I control time Right now I would be saying d words more clearly/ Kissing your lips more firmly/ Screaming I love you more dearly/ How I wish I could control time But even now I cnt control my fears,d tears nor d pen........ Ehm noble4d,help me awt. |

BACHELOR'S PARADISE (Than-Bak) Girls on the loose, Point and choose now, You snooze, your lose. Don't love her now Save your vow 'cuz That's how love starts. Go have a drink Give a wink out, Don't think, just talk! She's fine from dark, She turns back and.... She's black as coal! The night played me, The mask she wore Beauty was stained.

GHAZAL A Ghazal is a poem that is made up like an odd numbered chain of couplets.It should be natural to put a coma at the end of the first line. The Ghazal has a refrain of one of three words that repeat, and an inline rhyme that precede the refrain. Line 1 and 2, then every second line had the refrain and inline rhyme, and the last couplet should refer to the poet pen name - The rhyming scheme is AA bA cA dA eA. EXAMPLE: Gallant Soldiers Behind the old cage lies a dead young woman; Beside her lies another fat crying woman. The gloom of the forest, fear no troop, Gallant aswe stand toprotect another dying woman. We stir,as we reach the district of the mean, They despoil to molest another weakling woman. We set our boom and fire at distance, Thence,heard the cry of an unclad crawling woman. Among other troops, Noble walks valiant, Steadily, and carried the innocent crying woman. It's easy and interesting guys, try it out. Best of luck. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

I'm sure you guys have written your own ghazal, only wish you wrote them here. Anyways, I have another interesting form of poem for you guys. |

TROLAAN POEM Trolaan, created by Valerie Peterson Brown, is a poem consisting of 4 quatrains. Each quatrain begins with the same letter. The rhyme scheme is abab. Starting with the second stanza, you use the second letter of the first line of the first stanza to write the second, each line beginning with that letter. On the third stanza, you will use the second letter on the first line of the second stanza and write the third each line beginning with that letter. On the fourth stanza, you will use the second letter of the first line of the third stanza and write the fourth each line beginning with that letter. Example last night when I look into your eyes, love sing blues into my heart, like water flow in the seas, leaving me stuck till I bite my heart. All i need is another night to see, And wone, so i can prepare to swim, Another night won't be a disease, Above all, I believe I'm a gem. leadeth my way to your heart like you are bewitch, like a beast leaving people think i make you a witch. Enrich me with vitamins love consist, Engrave my name into your sink. End my cry so I can be fit, Even for ones, one more night is all I seek. Alryt best of luck guys |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by Nobody: 8:02pm On Nov 28, 2015 |
noble4d:Thank you. But what exactly does this style add to the Poem? |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by noble4d(m): 9:50pm On Nov 28, 2015 |
Reyginus: Alryt, apart from the rhyming scheme which is ab ab, in this poem you begin the first line of the second stanza with the second letter of the first line of the first stanza. Same apply to other stanzas. Best of luck. |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by Nobody: 10:01pm On Nov 28, 2015 |
noble4d:I read that. I am simply asking why the method? As in, does it convey ideas better? |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by noble4d(m): 10:10pm On Nov 28, 2015 |
Reyginus: Yes it convey ideas better, also the poet/creator major concern is to make the poem sound smart and fascinating when reciting. |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by Nobody: 10:12pm On Nov 28, 2015 |
noble4d:How does it make poems better or good than other poem styles? Do you also know how meters work too? I mean their relevance to a poem? |
Re: Rudiments Of Poetry by noble4d(m): 10:29pm On Nov 28, 2015 |
Reyginus: Most of the poem you see out there are invented by someone with different objectives. Some inventor make use of iambic pentermeter or syllable and some Blvd it streches poems. As I stated earlier, this inventor Blvd that his style of poem is captivating and can be written and recited by a layman. |
