Line+Break+Poem+Directions


 * Directions for Line Break Poem:**

We have learned that poets plan very carefully where they want to end the lines in their poetry. Sometimes they stop the line at a certain word because they want to use a rhyme scheme. Some poems are not built on a rhyme scheme, and so the poet simply wants to call attention to particular words.
 * 1) Using what you have recently learned in class, create a poem in which you employ line breaks to build a rhyme scheme or to create blank verse in which you choose to empasize specific words.
 * 2) Your poem must be at least 16 lines in length.
 * 3) You can create a single stanza poem or create multiple stanzas.
 * 4) Be sure to put proper page headings that include your name and "Line Break Poem" at the top of your paper.
