What is in a ballad?

a ballad is a poem which includes a story, chorus, rhythm, shape and rhyme. The definition of story is "an account of a real or imaginary event"/the plot or succession of incidents of a novel, poem, drama. In a ballad you have to have a story this includes characters and what the ballad is about. A ballad usually tells you a love story, or a story connected to love. The story will often have a moral which will teach you a message (something that can help you or is needed to know in life). In all ballads a particular repetition pattern can be used. This can be as brief as a phase or as long as a verse. This section is called a chorus. In the ballad Frankie and Johnny, at the end of each verse lies a similar sentence (a chorus): "He was her man but he done her wrong"- although this is not always the case. The rhythm is the beat or pace of the poem but in this ballad it is the amount of syllables in every line. The shape of the ballad is not the physical shape of the poem, but it is the length, and how the words and sentences are distributed in the poem also many words are in the line. I hope I helped!
