These syllables are distributed among three lines so that there are seven syllables in the first line, five in the second line and three in the third line (7/5/3). The first line makes a statement. The next two lines ask a question relating to that statement. From: http://www.shadowpoetry.com/resources/wip/quinzaine.html Week 17: May 1-7, 2011 |

| 14. Shape poem- Life | ID #721403 |
| Posted: 4-3-2011 @ 11:09 am EDT | |
|
Life.The tree gives it all.The food, the flowers, the spices. The birds and animals thrive on it and so do us, the humans.But who thinks of them? We cut them selfishly for our needs, grow concrete instead of life. Shape Poetry is also associated with Concrete Poetry- Shape is one of the main things that separate prose and poetry. Poetry can take on many formats, but one of the most inventive forms is for the poem to take on the shape of its subject. Therefore, if the subject of your poem were of a flower, then the poem would be shaped like a flower. If it were of a fish, then the poem would take on the shape of a fish. ><<<*> Shape and Concrete Poetry go hand-in-hand; however, Concrete or Visual Poetry don’t have to take on the particular shape of the poem’s subject, but rather the wording in the poem can enhance the effect of the words...
