    Ballad of the Cool Fountain Anonymous Spanish poetess (15th century) Fountain, coolest fountain, Cool fountain of love, Where all the sweet birds come For comfortingbut one, A widow turtledove, Sadly sorrowing. At once the nightingale, That wicked bird, came by, And spoke these honied words: "My lady, if you will, I shall be your slave." "You are my enemy: Begone, you are not true! Green boughs no longer rest me, Nor any budding grove. Clear springs, where there are such, Turn muddy at my touch. I want no spouse to love Nor any children either. I forego that pleasure And their comfort too. No, leave me; you are false And wickedvile, untrue! Ill never be your mistress! Ill never marry you!"

    Sample Cinquains ~ puppy tree ornery, naughty growling, jumping, chewing a playful bundle of trouble Boxer CONRETE I am a very special shape I have three points and three lines straight. Look through my words and you will see, the shape that I am meant to be. I'm just not words caught in a tangle. Look close to see a small triangle. My angles add to one hundred and eighty degrees, you learn this at school with your abc's. Practice your maths and you will see, some other fine examples of me.

    Lyrics and Dramatic Poetry


    In a lyric poem, the mood is emotional and song-like. Lyric poems focus on the mood, state of mind and emotions of the author, so the reader may experience them also. The author will choose words by their ability to represent moods and feelings or by the way they sound, which can also add to the mood of the poem. Notice in this excerpt from Shakespeares sonnet number 18 how he set the mood: Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date: Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimmed, And every fair from fair sometime declines, By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed. Dramatic poetry is a drama that is written in verse that is meant to be spoken. Dramatic poetry includes dramatic monologues and rhyme verse. It usually tells a story or refers to a situation. A good example of dramatic poetry comes from Christopher Marlowe. This excerpt is from the opening of Tamburlaine the Great and is very dramatic and gets the point across
