The Ninth Reflection.

On Monday, Mrs.Fa could not attend the class as usual. Hence, she gave us a very special task to do to refresh back our memories regarding the types of poems that she had taught us earlier. The first type of poem is called Acrostic. To do an acrostic poem, we must firstly find a word as a subject and the poem will begin with each initial letter of the word. For an example, WONDER. Each of the initial (W, O, N, D, E, R) will fall into different lines and each line will start with the initial.The second type of poem is called Diamante. It is not interesting but also creative. This seven-lined poem is written into a shape of a diamond. The first line consists of only one word that is normally the title of the poem. The second line consists of two adjectives to describe the title given. The third line consists of three different verbs about the title. The fourth line consists of four nouns that are related to the title. The fifth line must have three verbs to describe the nouns in the fourth line. The sixth line consists of two adjectives that describe the fourth line. And the last line is a word that is opposite to the first line. The final type of poem is called the Freeverse. There is no format to this one which means that it is much more relaxed because it sets no limit to the poet!
