Poetry Intro

 Many poems will have the same elements as short stories.  It will have a plot with an exposition, rising action climax and resolution.  The characters will be less developed because a poem is more compact.  Poems will also have themes.  Poets will try to create strong images for the readers to see, here, taste, smell and feel what is happening.
