Poetic Structure Study Answer Key

Students examine a poem’s structure by counting lines, identifying the rhyme scheme, and determining which poetic form it resembles. They then explain how the poem’s structure helps reinforce its meaning. A bonus question invites students to consider how rewriting the poem in free verse would affect its impact.
