The form of the poem is not easy to determine. It consists of six stanzas of uneven length, which are, except for the first and fifth, again divided into sub-stanzas. The meter is irregular as well as the length of the verses and there is also no rhyme scheme. Cervantes plays very freely with the structure of poems. She does not use an established type of poem and ignores rhyme and meter, but she presents her words graphically in the form of stanzas, in separate but related sections. The six main parts are numbered. It can be assumed that the arrangement of the verses was done consciously and that it aims at a certain reception on the side of the reader. Each time a stanza or sub-stanza starts, a kind of pause emerges. This also allows the poem to have spatial and temporal leaps without transitions, but it also increases the difficulties concerning the understanding of the text. In addition to that, many things are only vaguely hinted or ambiguously presented. The inherent continuity of the poem is achieved by its themes and by its imagery.…
For example the first stanza, lines 1 through 5, tell of her first heartbreak from her husband. the caesura puts expression of sadness,sorrow, and grief. As well, in the fifth line states right out “my exile”.…
Because the poem is long, it won’t be quoted extensively here, but it is attached at the end of the paper for ease of reference. Instead, the paper will analyze the poetic elements in the work, stanza by stanza. First, because the poem is being read on-line, it’s not possible to say for certain that each stanza is a particular number of lines long. Each of several versions looks different on the screen; that is, there is no pattern to the number of lines in each stanza. However, the stanzas are more like paragraphs in a letter than they are poetic constructions. This is the first stanza, which is quoted in full to give a sense of the entire poem:…

The poem is a cinquain written in a hymn meter. The style of her writing might suggest she never wrote in the iambic pentameter because hymn meters don’t follow the same rules. The lines alternate between Iambic Tetrameter and Iambic Trimeter. It follows a more ABDB form as the lines might show:…
Death – the inevitable fate of every living person, is often a stage in the cycle of life that is often feared, avoided, or misunderstood. Often time’s literary works contain elements of death to symbolize the end or rebirth of a person or place. Death shows no bias, no prejudice or discriminatory action. Death, quite simply, is the ultimate fate. It can be argued, that without death, there is no reason to live because there is nothing to fear.…
This poem is written in the sonnet form consisting of fourteen lines total, the first three stanza’s have four lines each and rhymes every other line while the last stanza only two lines rhyming perfectly together. The style alone impresses me since I have tried to write sonnets before and found it to be too difficult to follow the strict structural guidelines (although I do aim to master a sonnet of my own one day, maybe even in this class!).…

The poem's structure is irregular. The poem begins and ends with single lines. In between there are 3 stanzas, all of which have different number of lines-6, 7 and 3. The purpose for the irregular structure is to create an effect of unequalness, symbolizing the discrimination he is receiving.…

The syllables of the stanzas began with eight syllables and end with six, but the rest has inconsistent syllables. The poem has a loose iambic pattern with a metrical pattern of 465543. The following example shows iambic tetrameter: “A toad the power mower caught.” The poet uses enjambment as shown in stanza one:…

This poem has no set pattern that is constant throughout. It has eleven sections in which are broken down into quatrains. Some verses are very different from others adding a trace of a story. Therefore, the verses do not follow the same rhyming scheme, making the poems emotion serious and mature. The lack of verse form also adds to these emotions.…
