deeper meaning to the poem, that crimes of passion are better that crimes of reason. The structure of this poem goes great lengths beyond words to symbolize the meaning behind this masterpiece. The poem is structured with nine lines, each with a varying amount of syllables. Three lines that discuss fire and they each have nine syllables, while the other six lines discuss ice and have either four or eight syllables. Frost also uses some rather creative verbs in his poem to describe fire and ice. In his poem Frost says, “From what I’ve tasted of desire/ I hold with those who favor fire,” (3 and 4) and “I think I know enough of hate/ To say that for destruction ice/ is also great.” (6,7, and 8) From lines three and four Frost uses the verbs tasted and favor which are verbs that show more emotion with fire, which shows that acts of emotion can be like a fire. However, in lines six and seven, Frost uses words like think and say that show more logic with ice, and this shows that crimes that are thought out are full of hatred and ice. This poem also contains a rather unique rhyme scheme, instead of using something common and easy to use, Frost uses the rhyme scheme ABA ABC BCB. This rhyme scheme, along with the varying syllables, creates a very unique flow for the poem, making the audience read it differently than other poems. Robert Frost uses some rather spectacular symbols in his poem to help give the poem an even deeper sense of meaning and purpose. In the article “Robert…

In the passage the syllables varied but if looked at closer a prominent pattern emerges. The syllable pattern is 10,11,10,11,2,11,10,11,5. The breaks occur in the middle and at the very end of the passage, these changes represent the ending of one idea and the introduction of another. In the first break the line is: “ 'Tis gone.” (3.3.506). Othello is talking about his love, so his love is changing and the new idea of war and violence is introduced in the next line.

Typically, a better understanding of a poem can be accomplished when the form is grasped and applied while reading. The Road Not Taken” consists of four stanzas comprised…

A syllable is a unit of language and in English, plus most other languages, a syllable is created by one of the five vowel sounds formed with consonant sounds on either the beginning, end or both. Vowel sounds are sounds made directly by our vocal chords while consonants are formed by our mouths, lips, teeth and tongue. Stress on syllables is the specific way we say words in our language. Interrupted and disrupted stress and especially patterns in stress have a powerful effect on a listener. …

Stern would then assess her students. For example, Mrs. Stern would me the following question: Kevin, how many syllables are in the word cat? Mrs. Stern had me clap my hands together to determine how syllables are in the particular word that she assigned me. Nevertheless, as my second year of kindergarten progressed, I was able to read (not on grade level), write and communicate—thanks to Mrs. Stern’s reading and writing class activities. Today, thanks Mrs. Stern, I see the learning process…
