Parallel lines are straight lines which are oriented the same way. For example, two railway lines are parallel to each other.
A piece from a poem is called a stanza. Each stanza consists of a group of lines that form a verse within a poem.
Verse has two meanings when one applies it to a poem. A single line can be called a verse. When we talk about blank verse, each line of the poem is a verse. (Verse comes from a Latin word meaning 'to turn a corner': in poetry the lines turn a corner each time they end and you begin with a fresh capital letter). But a verse can also mean a 'stanza': a group of lines held together with a rime. O what can ail thee Knight at arms Alone and palely loitering? The sedge is withered from the lake And no birds sing. The rimes here bind four lines together into a verse of four lines (a quatrain). Because of this ambiguity, most poets (and the best critics) say 'stanza' when they mean 'group of lines' and 'line' when they mean 'single line'.
If two circles are drawn using the same centre, the two lines of the circles are parallel as they don't meet each other.Two straight lines (think of railway tracks) are drawn next to each other, but never meet, they are parallel lines.
The last words of the first, third, and fourth lines in each stanza rhyme and the last words of the second and fifth lines in each stanza rhyme.
kennings are poems with just two of three lines in each verse
A poem with 4 verses, each containing 4 lines, is typically referred to as a quatrain. These quatrains can have different rhyme schemes, such as AABB or ABAB.
A recurring verse is a specific set of lines in a song that is repeated multiple times throughout the song, typically at the beginning or end of each verse. This repetition helps to establish a consistent theme or message within the lyrics.
The rhyme scheme for the song "I Am Woman" by Helen Reddy is AABBCC. In this structure, the first and second lines rhyme with each other, the third and fourth lines rhyme with each other, and the fifth and sixth lines rhyme with each other.
"Casey at the Bat" is not a free verse poem; it follows a distinct pattern of rhyme and meter known as ballad meter. The poem consists of alternating lines of eight and six syllables, with the second and fourth lines in each stanza rhyming.
A line that is repeated at the end of each verse is called as REFRAIN.
Blank verse is characterized by its regular meter (iambic pentameter) and unrhymed lines. You can tell a poem is written in blank verse by counting the syllables in each line and noticing the natural flow and rhythm without any rhyme scheme present.
