Introduction to Poetry Types


What Is Poetry - This section contains a definition of poetry, poetry is... quotes, and other helpful definitions for beginning poets.

Poetry Quotes - An enjoyable collection of famous poetry quotes along with quotes from previous Shadow Poets.

Traditional Poetry Forms - Displays a handful of traditional poetry forms. Most of the definitions have at least one example of each particular type of poetry for better understanding. All examples were provided by previous members of Shadow Poetry or Egroup (when Shadow Poetry was an interactive web site). More definitions for related poetry items may be found in the Shadow Poetry Handbook (link located above).

Invented Poetry Forms - As a bonus, Shadow Poetry feature poetry forms created by selected poets as new and challenging writing styles. Try not only the traditional forms, but some of the rewarding invented formats as well! If you have a poetry form you would like Shadow Poetry to display, please visit the contact page to send us the information (definition, examples, etc.)
