Writers Digest Says There are 168 Forms of Poetry

Now I am no professor and I have stood in front of enough audiences that ask for a list of poetic forms so now I will share this one. I only use about twenty five to thirty forms. Happy National Poetry Month!

Teach This Poem was developed for in-person classrooms, but it can be easily adapted for remote learning and hybrid learning models. Please see our list of suggestions for how to adapt this lesson for remote or blended learning.

Lucille Clifton

(at St. Mary’s)

may the tide
that is entering even now
the lip of our understanding
carry you out
beyond the face of fear
may you kiss
the wind then turn from it
certain that it will
love your back may you
open your eyes to water
water waving forever
and may you in your innocence
sail through this to that

This is amazing. I work with translation and never thought deeply about it until now.
Thank you Soje and ALTA for hosting and sharing!
