Do you have any examples of iambic pentameter for a girl doing her English homework?
Shall I compare thee to a Summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And Summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And oft' is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd:
But thy eternal Summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wanderest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
This is all in iambic pentameter
it should go "di-dum di-dum di-dum di-dum di-dum"
but in this case it goes
"di-dum di-dum dum-di di-dum di-dum"
"Now is the winter of our discontent"
is another
and "A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse"
once you know the rhythm they're easy to spot

How do you write a lyric poem?
A lyric poem is a personal poem. Just write whatever is on your mind. Tell your story.
Express your concern. If you want to imitate a writer, just create a poem like the one you are reading. For example, look up "Sea Fever". Think of something that you feel compelled to do.
Then write a poem like "Sea Fever". If you want to write a sonnet, read a Shakespeare sonnet, then write one like that.
Lyric poetry is what you probably think of when you think of a poem. Songs are lyric poetry, also. Click on the Related Questions to learn what sorts of lyric poems you might write.
To write good lyric poetry, you must have a good sense of rhythm and rhyme, and be able to fit your words into the proper format without resorting to stilted phrases or forcing the emphasis onto odd syllables.
Pick a topic and brainstorm: just write down any images you think of, any rhymes that come to your mind, and any words that are associated with that topic for you. Once you feel that you have a big enough "pile" of images and words, start looking for connections. Join the bits together in different ways - try one rhyme, then another until you find a pattern that works for you.
Then, start editing. You will need to condense your poetry down to it's most concise form. Dump anything that takes away, even slightly, from the images you want to convey. Make certain that each word is precisely the one you need to invoke whatever emotion you are aiming for in your reader (or listener). This step will take longer than writing the images down, because a poem must be distilled down to bare image and emotion.

Visual Poetry, is poetry or art in which the visual arrangement of text, images and symbols is important in conveying the intended effect of the work. It is sometimes referred to as concrete poetry, a term that predates visual poetry, and at one time was synonymous with it.
Visual poetry was heavily influenced by Fluxus, which is usually described as being Intermedia. Intermedia work tends to blur the distinctions between different media, and visual poetry blurs the distinction between art and text. Whereas concrete poetry is still recognizable as poetry, being composed of purely typographic elements, visual poetry is generally much less text-dependent. Visual poems incorporate text, but the text may have primarily a visual function. Visual poems often incorporate significant amounts of non-text imagery in addition to text.
It should be noted here that there remains some debate regarding the distinction between concrete poetry and visual poetry. There are three dominant views regarding the issue. One view is that visual poetry is synonymous with concrete poetry. A second view is that visual poetry is a type (or sub-category) of concrete poetry. And the last view (adopted in this article) is that visual poetry has evolved into a visual form distinct from concrete poetry. This view is supported by work identified as visual poetry in which, typographic elements are secondary to visual elements, or are minimal, or in some cases are absent altogether from the work.

What are the main thought of the poem like a joke that seems true by iluminado lucente?
jokes are half meant true...
Tupac Shakur, also known as 2Pac, wrote several poems and songs during his career as a rapper and artist. Some of his poetic works include "The Rose That Grew from Concrete," "In the Depths of Solitude," and "And 2morrow." These poems often reflect on themes of struggle, social issues, and personal growth.
In the poem "The Wanderer," the speaker changes at the points where he transitions from despair over the transience of life to finding solace in the idea of seeking wisdom and redemption from God. These changes affect the poem by showing a shift in the speaker's perspective from lamenting loss to seeking spiritual renewal, highlighting the themes of loneliness, exile, and the quest for meaning in the face of suffering.
What is the meaning of the poem self-pity by Lawrence?
as we are not a wild animal, but supposed to be more civil, the wild animal lives for the moment and does not feel sorry for itself even as it dies a death through no fault of its own, we as humans have self pity for any little thing that goes wrong in our lives even if it is through our faults.
first importance is we increase our vocabulary.
Secondly the sentence framing is improved.
Thirdly our mind becomes creative when we read stories or poems.
It can be informative to the historical background and compare to modern times.
Can change people's perspectives on life. (I've been reading Frankenstein and I look differently at it now).

How can you find a poem read by Jimmy Dean at his daughter's wedding?
I have research this for quite sometime and there is nothing about any poem that Jimmy Dean read to his daughter at her wedding. Is it possible he sang her a song (being a singer)? I have even researched that and nothing has come up. Jimmy Dean is more known presently by his meat products (a going concern.) I can only suggest that you check out fan clubs or go on blog and ask your question. Sorry, tried my best.
There are some people that love "the chase" (trying to win the other person over) and once they do, it appears the excitement goes right out of the relationship for these people. Your girlfriend sounds like one of these people. Their attitudes really aren't about their relationships, but they are antsy and unsure of who they are and where they want to be in life. They find it hard to settle down and commit to much of anything. Every individual is different and some of us are lucky enough to find that right person and be happy with them. No, we don't always have the answer as to who we really are or what we want in our futures and I think that happens so we keep striving to better ourselves. None of us show the undying affection for each other as we did when we first went together, but it important to show affection. I always like to call it a "circle of life"; we meet and the fireworks explode, we can hardly breath or think of anything else but that person we love. Then we start seeing a lot of each other and things get slightly stale and that's a sign that the first part of the magic has worn off the relationship (normal) and it's time to give each other a little head space. You should go out with your friends every so often and she should do the same with her friends. If we are constantly joined at the hip with our mates with every single thing we do, you bet your relationship will get boring. I always like an air of adventure and mystery in my relationships and my husband and I even after 33 years of marriage still have that. There are no serious, dark secrets we keep from each other and we are true to each other. I just have my things I want to do and so does he. "Absence makes the heart grow fonder." He finds me exciting because he never knows what I'm going to do next, and I love that he gives me the head space and that he goes out with his friends fishing and golfing. It gives both of the opportunity to see other people (friends only) and it's refreshing. Many times we do things together even around the house or sit and discuss world events, etc. Yup, your relationship has become stale and boring. Please don't blame yourself. Communication is so important and just sit down with that girlfriend of yours and discuss this problem with her or, don't discuss it and just go out with your buddies a little more and give her some head space. You don't have to be there for her every waking moment. If you play a little hard to get she'll be all over you again. I think there is still love there, but you need to "pump up the volume." Good luck Marcy
Can a poem be a mystery about what your talking?
Yes, a poem can be a mystery by using symbolism, imagery, and abstract language to create layers of meaning that invite readers to interpret and unravel its secrets. By leaving elements ambiguous or open to multiple interpretations, the poem can evoke curiosity and intrigue, engaging the reader in a process of discovery and exploration.
