Types of Poetry: Lyric




DEFINITION: A poem where poets express feelings and thoughts

EXAMPLE: I HEAR A SONG BY JOE FAZIO
  In the song of life, all lyrics need a melody.

You are the lyric and you are the melody.
You are the lyric of my heart and of my soul.

The beauty of the rose, speaks a lyric of love.
Love, speaks a lyric of you.

The silent lyric of goodness, echoes from within you.
My heart, speaks the lyric of love...to only you.

Let the words...the lyric...that bind, pass between us.
Let the lyric, of you...of me...be as one.

A million words I can speak of you and the lyrics
would be the same...I love you now. I always will
 

SIGNIFICANCE: What is good about lyric poetry is that it contains people's feelings and thoughts. It's not full of stories, but what a person feels.
