Poems are like stories; they both have a
plot, setting, characters, and theme. But the elements that make up a poem are
different than the elements that make up stories. The elements of poetry are figurative
language, rhyme, theme, imagery, plot, characters, and settings. The elements
of stories are plot, characters, setting, and conflict. As I list some of the
elements of poem and stories, they shared the most common elements in common
stories. Plot, characters, setting, and conflict all that stuff.
The example which I will provide is called Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take
the Garbage Out.
Sarah
Cynthia Sylvia Stout
Would
not take the garbage out!
She’d
scour the pots and scrape the pans,
Candy
the yams and spice the hams,
And
though her daddy would scream and shout,
She
simply would not take the garbage out.
And
so it piled up to the ceilings:
Coffee
grounds, potato peelings,
Brown
bananas, rotten peas,
Chunks
of sour cottage cheese.
This is few lines in Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out. The
character is Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout. The conflict is Sarah Cynthia Sylvia
Stout wouldn’t take the garbage out. The plot of this poem is all the lines in
this poem; if you understand the meaning of the poem, then it would be easier
to understand the plot. Finally, the setting, obviously is in Sarah Cynthia
Sylvia Stout’s house.
