Poetry Categories - Terza Rimapathetic.org members may categorize their work so that visitors to the site can find a particular type of poetry more easily. Because a piece may fit in more than one category, you may come across a particular poem several times. Whether you are looking for poetry written in a particular style, or a poem on a certain topic, you can browse through the categories listed here to find a variety of works that meet the criteria.
Terza Rima [tert-suh REE-muh]: A verse form consisting of tercets, usually in iambic pentameter in English poetry, with a chain or interlocking rhyme scheme, as: aba, bcb, cdc, etc. The pattern concludes with a separate line added at the end of the poem (or each part) rhyming with the second line of the preceding tercet or with a rhyming couplet, as in Shelley's Ode to the West Wind.
NOTE: The rhyme sound which carries from the middle line of each tercet to the opening line of the next tercet provides a strong sense of forward movement to the terza rima.
