Intorducing 5 new poetry structres of mine

5 new poetry structures
by Paul McCann.

The following are some of mu own poetry structures
.
Structure 1 – Semetric Form
.
This is a structure with a focus on repeating the words used in each line .
The poem is broken up into two parts with the each section being a mirrored replica of itself and continues to the finish of the poem . My Examples
.
From Here To There - By Paul McCann
A lifetime spend on bended knee ,
On bended knee a lifetime spent .
I beg of thee turn and repent ,
Turn and repent I beg of thee .
We leave behind this mortal life .
This mortal life we leave behind
In shades of time all will be mine .
All will be mine in shades of time .


.
Glory Be Praised ¬ By Paul McCann
I am alive because of him .
Because of him I am alive .
Man cannot live on bread alone .
On bread alone man cannot survive .
I'm nourished by the living word .
The living word I'm nourished by .
They shall not die who ever hears .,
Who ever hears they shall not die .
We shall be raised on the last day .
On the last day we shall we raised .
Your name be praised forever Lord.
Forever Lord your name be praised .
Before the night there is the dawn .
There is a dawn before the night .
With all my might I love thee Lord
I love thee Lord with all my might .

.
Structure 2 – The Stepladder Form
This is a style I created that employs syllable count .where the first line of the poem doubles up and the second doubles to a point in the poem where the doubling up stops and then begins dividing in half to the end of the poem .
The last word in each line should rhyme with the previous line .
.
My Examples
Where Rivers Run
By Paul McCann
.
Sheet rain
Fell down again ,
On the other side of the road
Gardens were watered and on houses blocked gutters had overflowed .
The rain never stopped for days and somewhere a river rose and flooded a town that was completely cut off and still the river ran ..
Cars were washed away like toys in the flow that had widened its span .
Meanwhile cars drove fast through our town .
They don't slow down .
You know .

The Soul Cut - By Paul McCann

When I go out
I carry my scissors about
So everything I see I don't like I can cut them away .
I sharpen my scissors on the edge of reality and keep them stainless in the pockets of my soul where truth will guide my way .
I snip back the time between you and I for I cannot wait any longer to see the smile on your face and the love in your eye and every day each step of the way all I do is cut back the tears that want to fall because I miss you here every day .
What a wonderful gift are these scissors that you bought for me my love and I will keep them in my pockets until the end of time .
I'll never cut back forever as being with you there is fine .
There is no end to its measure .
The hearts treasure .
Its you .

.
Structure 3 –
The Letter-speak
Here is another structure called The Letter-speak .
With this form choose any one word topic or theme .
Then use each consecutive letter in the theme or topic to describe the various aspects to the theme .
.
My Examples Letters in Love -
By Paul McCann.
How does one spell love .
.
L are for lips to be kissed ,
O is for a good sound .
V is very nice ,
E doesn't mean it must end .
(and that's the love I've found ).

What's In The Wind - By Paul McCann

How does one spell wind .

W is for the whoosh it makes and
I is for what's incoming with it .
N is the nature of its character and
D is for where it domains in and after its flit .
.

Structure 4 -
Line Down
.
This is a style I created with the first line creates the poem
The first word of the line is as it is and then the structure begins with
the second word on the first line becoming the first word of line 2
then the third word on the first line is the first word of line 3
the fourth word of the first line is the first word in line 4 and on it continues .
My Examples -
