In poetry, a stanza is a unit within a large poem.In modern poetry, the term is often equivalent with strophe;in popular vocal music, a stanza is typically referred to as a "verse"(distinct from the refrain,or chorus").

A stanza consists of a grouping of lines, set off by a space, usually has a set pattern of meter and rhyme.

In traditional English-language poems, stanzas can be identified and grouped together because they shared a rhyme scheme or a fixed number of lines. In much modern poetry,stanzas may be arbitrarily presented on the printed page because of publishing conventions that employ such feature as white space or punctuation.
