Basic Elements: Rhythm, Rhyme and Imagery

Rhythm

Most poetry has rhythm, and rhythm is achieved by emphasizing or deemphasizing certain syllables in the words used in the lines of the love poem.

The syllables, themselves, are then grouped into two or three syllable units called "feet".

Examples of different types of "feet": (note: all underlined syllables are emphasized)

[My love] [for you] [will al] [ways be,]

The above feet in [ ] brackets are called "iambs" because they are each composed of two syllables with the second syllable of each foot emphasized.

[Slow ly] [soft ly] [and so] [gent ly]

The above feet in brackets are called "trochees" because they are each composed of two syllables with the first syllable of each foot emphasized.

[Sweet heart] [thou art] [al ways] [at heart]

The above feet in brackets are called "spondees" because they are each composed of two syllables with both syllables of each foot emphasized.

[Self res pect] [is a-chieved] [when one leaves] [lust and greed]

The above feet in brackets are called "dactyls" because they are each composed of three syllables with the first syllable of each foot emphasized.

[Dis res pect] [can not be] [for a love] [to be free]

The above feet in brackets are called "anapests' because they are each composed of three syllables with the third syllable of each foot emphasized.

Rhythm, as you can see from the above, depends on emphasized and deemphasized syllables which make up "feet." Taking this a step further, a "line" or "verse" of a poem is made up of one or more "feet."

Examples of Lines (Verses):

Iambic Tetrameter (4-meter)

[My love] [for you] [will al] [ways be,]

This verse has four iambic feet.

Iambic Trimeter (3-meter)

[I kiss] [you in] [my dreams]

This verse has three iambic feet.

You can also have five iambic feet:

Iambic Pentameter (5-meter)

[Thus soon] [I'll need] [the warmth] [of your] [em brace]

The variations are almost endless!

Trochaic Trimeter, Trochaic Tetrameter, Anapestic Monometer, Anapestic Tetrameter, and on and on ........

Rhyme

Love poetry does not always have to rhyme. For example, there is a type of poetry called "Free Verse." It's almost like prose, except that the words flow with imagery and become poetic in spite of the absence of rhyme.

Example:

To me, you are a delicate Rose

Whose beauty never dies

When pressed between the pages

Of a good book;

Or caught between the pages

Of my mind.

- Unknown

Throughout the ages, however, rhymed love poetry has been the prevalent form of this type of expression. Rhyme is achieved when sounds are repeated within a verse or at the end of two different verses. For example, we present a "couplet" which is composed of two end-rhymed verses:

I have not seen you for many days,

And truly I've missed you in countless ways.

The couplet is the smallest verse grouping more commonly refered to as a "standza."

There are many different patterns of poetry which depend on the number of verses as well as the end rhyming pattern used. Here are examples which you can refer to when writing your own love poems;

Triplet (3 verses)

a) She opened her eyes, and green

b) They shone, clear, like flowers undone

a) For the first time, now for the last time seen.

- D. H. Lawrence

Quatrain (4 verses)

a) A ruddy drop of manly blood

b) The surging sea outweighs;

c) The world uncertain comes and goes,

b) The lover rooted stays.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Quintet (5 verses)

a) Hail to thee blithe spirit,

b) Bird thou never wert

a) That from heaven, or near it,

b) Pourest thy full heart

b) In profuse strains of unpremeditated art.

- Percy Bysshe Shelly

Sestet (6 verses)

a) Good-bye, proud world! I'm going home:

b) Thou art not my friend, and I'm not thine:

a) Long through the weary crowds I roam;

b) A river-ark on the ocean brine,

a) Long I've been like the driven foam;

a) But now, proud world! I'm going home.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Septet (7 verses)

a) The flower that smiles today

b) Tomorrow dies;

a) All that we wish to stay

b) Tempts and then flies:

c) What is this world's delight?

c) Lightening that mocks the night,

c) Brief even as bright.

- Percy Bysshe Shelly

Octave (8 verses)

a) Thou art a female, Katydid!

b) I know it by the trill

c) That quivers through thy piercing notes,

b) So petulant and shrill;

d) I think there is a knot of you

e) Beneath the hollow tree, -

f) A knot of spinster Katydids, -

e) Do Katydids drink tea?

- To an Insect Oliver Wendell Holmes

Nine-Line Standza (9 verses)

a) Fair Daffodils, we weep to see

b) You haste away so soon;

c) As yet the early rising sun

b) Has not attained his noon.

d) Stay, stay,

d) Until the hasting day

c) Has run

f) But to the even-song;

a) And having prayed together, we

f) Will go with you along.

- To Daffodils, Robert Herrick

Ballad Standza (Alternating verses of Iambic Trimeter and Iambic Tetrameter)

a) So far apart are we again (Iambic Tetrameter)

b) It is not fair I say (Iambic Trimeter)

a) For I was dealt a rotten hand, (Iambic Tetrameter)

b) And now I have to pay. (Iambic Trimeter)

- Ara John Movsesian

Limerick (5 verses with the rhyming word at the end of the first verse repeated in the last verse)

The Reverend Henry Ward Beecher

Called a hen a most elegant creature.

The hen pleased with that,

Laid an egg in his hat -

And thus did the hen reward Beecher!

- Oliver Wendell Holmes

Sonnet (14 verses - rhyming patterns are varied)

(a) Shall I compare thee to a summers day?

(b) Thou art more lovely and more temperate;

(a) Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

(b) And summer's lease hath all too short a date:

(c) Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

(d) And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;

(c) And every fair from fair sometime declines,

(d) By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;

(e) But thy eternal summer shall not fade,

(f) Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;

(e) Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade,

(f) When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st:

(g) So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,

(g) So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

- Sonnet XVIII William Shakespeare

There are many other variations which we will not discuss at this time.

Imagery and Words

Rhythm and Rhyme are a love poem's technical ingredients. Words and Imagery are a love poem's creative ingredients.

Words are a poets paint. The sheet of paper is his/her canvass. You, as the poet, must select the words which best express your true feelings. These words if properly selected will give the love poem "taste."

When you connect the words you have selected creating verses and then standzas, you must use imagery in order to give the love poem "flavor."

Example of Imagery:

Your arms are my Eden, I cannot leave.

The words arms and Eden give this verse taste. But even more, working together, they create imagery which gives this verse flavor. So what does the verse really mean?

Your arms are my (Secure home - They are a beautiful place to be. They comfort me and give me warmth and contentment. Because of this), I cannot leave.

Well, there it is in a nutshell. We hope you learned something new. If you did, great! Why not sit down now and try your hand at it. Don't despair if it is difficult at first. Nothing in life is easy, if you want to do it right. It takes education, practice and more practice. Even the pros write and rewrite, hone and hone some more, until they are finally satisfied that every word in the poem belongs.

Happy Writing!

Love Letter No. 10 - Yearning

Dear (Name),

Greetings from (city/state/country)! I sincerely hope that all is well with you and yours. I am fine. Surprisingly, I've been keeping myself quite busy since I last saw you. Which reminds me, the last time we were together I had a (ball/blast/great time), and you were so (charming/crazy/funny/hilarious) I couldn't get over it. In fact, I still haven't.

(Name), I think of you every day - I can't help myself! Memories of pleasant times with you are hard to suppress, and my being so far away from you doesn't help matters either because it makes me wish I could be with you even more. Truthfully, knowing that you are alive and I can't be with you is an unbearable torment.

(Name), when will I see you again? I can't stand the pain and anguish of our separation much longer. I yearn to gaze into your captivating eyes. I crave your tender touch, your warm embrace and your passionate kiss. I yearn for the day when I can be with you again.

Until that (fateful/wonderful) day arrives, I wish you the best life has to offer. (Name), please take good care of yourself and write me as soon as you can.

Love,

(Name)

Love Letter No. 9 - Pleasant Memories

Dear (Name),

Greetings from (Name of City/Country)! I hope this letter finds you well. Since last I saw you, I've been very busy with (school/work/my duties). I've wanted to write you for quite sometime now, but it seems as though every time I got started something would come up, and I'd have to stop. I'm sure you can understand that.

(Name), I often think of that wonderful evening when we first met-the first time I saw you - the first time we spoke to each other - the first time we touched - the first time we kissed. It seems just like yesterday because I keep such precious memories constantly alive in the pages of my mind.

(Name), I just haven't felt the same since I met you. Knowing that you are in this world excites me and makes my body tingle all over. I get butterflies in my stomach, and my heart skips a beat.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I miss your smile, I miss your soft caress, I miss your tender kiss and most of all I miss the thrill of just being (at your side/with you).

(Name), please write me and tell me how you're doing even if it's just a small note. Until I hear from you, or better yet, until we meet again, my thoughts are with you.

Your Loving Friend,

(Name)

Love Letter No. 8 - Declarations

(Name),(Name),(Name),

Your name is pure music to my ears. Truly, I could call it out loud a million times and never tire of its sound.

(Name), believe me when I say that not a minute passes without my thoughts turning to you. At this very moment, I wish you were here holding me in your arms and kissing me on my lips - I would not tire of that either.

Surely you must know how difficult it is for me to pretend as though all is well when you are so far away. In all honesty, I am very depressed these days and lack my usual sense of humor. All my friends tell me to lighten up, but then, they can't understand the torment of my loneliness. How can I lighten up when my heart is torn hopelessly between two (worlds/continents/countries/states/cities)?

Yesterday, I saw someone who reminded me of you, and I had to look twice. You know, something deep down in my heart was hoping against all hope that, by some miracle, it was really you standing on the corner and not some stranger. Truthfully, this has been happening to me a lot lately, and each time my disappointment increases. Sometimes I wonder just how I'm going to last another (No. of days/weeks/months).

(Name), the fact is, if it weren't for your letters, my loneliness would be totally devastating. They really keep me going and are a source of great comfort and joy. In truth, I crave them with a passion and whenever one arrives at my mailbox, my heart races with anticipation, for the words which lie within are my only direct bridge to you.

(Name), I pray that the Lord will keep you well, so that someday soon, you can come safely back to me. This is my greatest wish.

Until that day is a reality, I remain

Your Eternal Love,

(Name)

Love Letter No. 7 - Hugs & Kisses

Love Letter No. 6 - Excitement

Dear (Name),

I had to write you as soon as I could to express just how much I enjoyed being with you last (night/day of week). I really had a great time! To be honest, I have never felt as happy, as content or as excited about being with someone as I was with you. The whole (evening/night/day) was a joy to experience.

Truthfully, (Name), you are a class act. Even though I met you only recently, I feel as though I've known you for a long time. I consider myself a good judge of character, and from what I've seen, you are a one-in-a-million (guy/gal). You're so unpredictable and exciting yet so stable in that you seem to know what you want out of life. You're so strong (physically/emotionally) yet you seem to have a gentle and compassionate nature. You are so intelligent yet so humble and down to earth. Last but not least, you are so (good-looking/handsome/beautiful) yet not in the least bit conceited. All these are endearing qualities which attract me very much.

(Name), whenever I think of you, my heart skips a beat, and my senses swirl in anticipation of seeing you once again. You have become the Ambrosia of my heart, and I am drawn to you as a bee is to honey.

Your Loving Friend,

(Name)

Love Letter No. 5 - Wholeness

Dearest (Name):

I have lived for a long time (responsible for/dependent upon) no one, answering to no one and committed to no one except myself. During this period of my life, I considered the World mine for the taking and truly believed that I was living life to the fullest. Then, you came into the picture, and all of a sudden, I realized that I was deceiving myself.

(Name), I am an incomplete (man/woman) in need of wholeness. I find that my life is not all that I thought it was. In fact, it is terribly lacking in many things, the foremost being love. Now, through some great fortune, I have found that love and along with it the one person who can make my life truly complete.

(Name), you are that person, and I have somehow fallen hopelessly and undeniably in love with you. To be honest, I never thought I would ever utter those words, but now, they come forth effortlessly and with great sincerity. I'll be forever greatful to you for showing me just how shallow my life was. At last, I have a chance to give it depth and purpose.

I wanted to tell you this in person, but I knew that the proper words would escape me. I wrote you this letter instead. Please call me after you read it, and we'll talk.

Until I hear from you, I remain totally yours in thought and spirit.

Love,

(Name)

Love Letter No. 4 - True Love

Dearest (Name):

It is very important for me to express to you how much you really mean to me. I wish I could do this in person while holding you in my arms and gazing into your eyes. But since we are physically separated by miles of emptiness, this expression must come in the form of letters such as this.

(Name), I know it is difficult for you, as it is for me, to be separated for so long. Life seems to be full of trials of this type which test our inner strength, and more importantly, our devotion and love for one another. After all, it is said that "True Love" is boundless and immeasurable and overcomes all forms of adversity. In truth, if it is genuine, it will grow stronger with each assault upon its existence.

(Name), our love has been assaulted many times, and I am convinced that it is true because the longer I am away from you, the greater is my yearning to be with you again. You are my (enchanted Princess/Charming Prince), and I am your devoted (consort/Prince/Princess). I cherish any thought of you, prize any memory of you that rises from the depths of my mind, and live for the day when our physical separation will no longer be.

Until that moment arrives, I send to you across the miles, my tender love, my warm embrace, and my most passionate kiss.

Love always,

(Name)

Love Letter No. 3 - Proclamation

Dearest (Name):

Just as a poet needs inspiration to write a masterpiece

I need you ...

Just as an artist needs a subject for his work of art,

I need you ...

Just as a teacher needs a pupil to mold into greatness,

I need you ...

Just as a composer needs a theme to create a timeless melody,

I need you ...

For without you, (Name), my life would be empty of all inspiration. There will be no work of art for me to gaze at; no person of greatness before me; no timeless melody to listen to. My life will exist in shades of gray instead of vibrant colors, and I will be less than whole.

In the past, the proper words have escaped me, and my innermost feelings have been kept locked away in the depths of my heart. No more - for through this letter, I proclaim to you, (Name), my undying love and eternal devotion.

Yours forever,

(Name)

Love Letter No. 2 - Destiny

My dear (Name):

There are things in life that are inevitable; I am powerless to control them. The Sun will rise and set, the tide will come in and go out, the seasons will change, the birds will fly South for the winter and return in the spring, and the caterpiller will transform itself into a (beautiful/handsome) butterfly. Somehow, I feel reassured by this because many other things in life are so transient - so momentary.

(Name), from the moment we met, I knew that our friendship would develop into something lasting and precious, just as I am sure that the caterpiller will one day become a (beautiful/handsome) butterfly.

Dearest, I believe that our love is (blessed/ordained) by God. It is a union of two spirits destined for everlasting happiness. Thus, you have truly become the star of my life which brings me light in this dark world, and warmth when I need it. You offer me the promise of renewal, the joy of living, the peace of mind that comes from sharing and caring, and that shoulder to lean on in times of stress. You are my Swallow from Capistrano - my precious butterfly, and I will cherish you and love you forever.

Love Letter No. 1 - First Encounter

Hi (Name):

Just thought I'd write you a short note to tell you haow much I enjoyed meeting you at (place). I can't recall when I had a more pleasant time. Everything felt so natural, and you were very easy to talk to. It's hard for me to identify what it is about you that attracts me so. I suppose it might be the combination of your great sense of humor, your charming personality and your good-looks. Whatever it is, I can sense its presence. You could call it chemistry, or better yet, the possibility that we are on the same wavelength.

(Name), I really hope that our first (encounter/meeting/date) was not our last because I felt very special when I was with you. I truly want to give our friendship a chance to grow.

Well, I guess I've said enough for the time being. (Name), have a wonderful (week/day) and, hopefully, I'll see you again real soom. If you get a chance, (write/call) me and tell me your thoughts.

Until I hear from you, take care of yourself.

Always,

(Name)

Love Letrer by Gustave Flaubert, famous French writer, to his wife Louise Colet.

I will cover you with love when next I see you, with caresses, with ecstasy. I want to gorge you with all the joys of the flesh, so that you faint and die. I want you to be amazed by me, and to confess to yourself that you had never even dreamed of such transports… When you are old, I want you to recall those few hours, I want your dry bones to quiver with joy when you think of them.

By Gustave Flaubert
August 15, 1846

Love Letter by Mark Twain, American writer, to Olivia Langdon, his future wife.

Out of the depths of my happy heart wells a
great tide of love and prayer for this priceless treasure that is
confided to my life-long keeping.

You cannot see its intangible waves as they
flow towards you, darling, but in these lines you will hear, as it
were, the distant beating of the surf.

By Mark Twain
May 12, 1869

Love Letter by Lady Shigenari, to Lord Kimura Shigenari

Considered the ideal Japanese hero, Lord Kimura Shigenari was the Governor
of Nagato in the 16th century. In this letter, Lady Shigenari, sensing that
her husband would soon be killed in battle, chooses to take her own life
rather than continue the journey of life alone.

I know that when two wayfarers ‘take shelter under the same tree and slake
their thirst in the same river’ it has all been determined by their karma from
a previous life. For the past few years you and I have shared the same pillow
as man and wife who had intended to live and grow old together, and I have
become as attached to you as your own shadow. This is what I believed, and I
think this is what you have also thought about us.

But now I have learnt about the final enterprise on which you have decided
and, though I cannot be with you to share the grand moment, I rejoice in the
knowledge of it. It is said that (on the eve of his final battle) the Chinese
general, Hsiang Yü, valiant warrior though he was, grieved deeply about
leaving Lady Yü, and that (in our own country) Kiso Yoshinaka lamented his
parting from Lady Matsudono. I have now abandoned all hope about our future
together in this world, and (mindful of their example) I have resolved to take
the ultimate step while you are still alive. I shall be waiting for you at the
end of what they call the road to death.

I pray that you may never, never forget the great bounty, deep as the ocean,
high as the mountains, that has been bestowed upon us for so many years by our
lord, Prince Hideyori.

To Lord Shigenari, Governor of Nagato
From His Wife
16th Century

Love Letter from John Keats, to his darling

25 College Street

My dearest Girl,

This moment I have set myself to copy some verses out fair. I cannot proceed with any degree of content. I must write you a line or two and see if that will assist in dismissing you from my Mind for ever so short a time. Upon my Soul I can think of nothing else - The time is passed when I had power to advise and warn you again[s]t the unpromising morning of my Life - My love has made me selfish. I cannot exist without you - I am forgetful of every thing but seeing you again - my Life seems to stop there - I see no further. You have absorb’d me. I have a sensation at the present moment as though I was dissolving - I should be exquisitely miserable without the hope of soon seeing you. I should be afraid to separate myself far from you. My sweet Fanny, will your heart never change? My love, will it? I have no limit now to my love - You note came in just here - I cannot be happier away from you - ‘T is richer than an Argosy of Pearles. Do not threat me even in jest. I have been astonished that Men could die Martyrs for religion - I have shudder’d at it - I shudder no more - I could be martyr’d for my Religion - Love is my religion - I could die for that - I could die for you. My Creed is Love and you are its only tenet - You have ravish’d me away by a Power I cannot resist: and yet I could resist till I saw you; and even since I have seen you I have endeavoured often “to reason against the reasons of my Love.” I can do that no more - the pain would be too great - My Love is selfish - I cannot breathe without you.

Yours for ever
John Keats

Love Letter by Lewis Carroll

Christ Church, Oxford,
October 28, 1876

My Dearest Gertrude:

You will be sorry, and
surprised, and puzzled, to hear what a queer illness I have had ever since you
went. I sent for the doctor, and said, “Give me some medicine. for I’m tired.”
He said, “Nonsense and stuff! You don’t want medicine: go to bed!”

I
said, “No; it isn’t the sort of tiredness that wants bed. I’m tired in the
face.” He looked a little grave, and said, “Oh, it’s your nose that’s tired: a
person often talks too much when he thinks he knows a
great deal.” I said,
“No, it isn’t the nose. Perhaps it’s the hair.” Then he looked rather grave, and
said, “Now I understand: you’ve been playing too many hairs on the
pianoforte.”

“No, indeed I haven’t!” I said, “and it isn’t exactly the
hair: it’s more about the nose and chin.” Then he looked a good deal graver, and
said, “Have you been walking much on your chin lately?” I said, “No.” “Well!” he
said, “it puzzles me very much.

Do you think it’s in the lips?” “Of
course!” I said. “That’s exactly what it is!”

Then he looked very grave
indeed, and said, “I think you must have been giving too many kisses.” “Well,” I
said, “I did give one kiss to a baby child, a little friend of
mine.”

“Think again,” he said; “are you sure it was only one?” I thought
again, and said, “Perhaps it was eleven times.” Then the doctor said, “You must
not give her any more till your lips are quite rested
again.” “But what am I
to do?” I said, “because you see, I owe her a hundred and eighty-two more.” Then
he looked so grave that tears ran down his cheeks, and he said, “You may send
them to her in a box.”

Then I remembered a little box that I once bought
at Dover, and thought I would someday give it to some little girl or other. So I
have packed them all in it very carefully. Tell me if they come safe or if any
are lost on the way.”

Lewis Carroll

Love Letter by Ludwig van Beethoven

My angel, my all, my very
self — only a few words today and at that with your pencil — not till tomorrow
will my lodgings be definitely determined upon — what a useless waste of time.
Why this deep sorrow where necessity speaks — can our love endure except
through sacrifices — except through not demanding everything — can you change
it that you are not wholly mine, I not wholly thine?

Oh, God! look out
into the beauties of nature and comfort yourself with that which must be — love
demands everything and that very justly — that it is with me so far as you are
concerned, and you with
me. If we were wholly united you would feel the pain
of it as little as I!

Now a quick change to things internal from things
external. We shall surely see each other; moreover, I cannot communicate to you
the observations I have made during the last few days touching my own life — if
our hearts were always close together I would make none of the kind. My heart is
full of many things to say to you - Ah! — there are moments when I feel that
speech is nothing after all — cheer up — remain my true, only treasure, my all
as I am yours; the gods must send us the rest that which shall be best for
us.

Your faithful,
Ludwig
July 6, 1806
