Poetry is divided into classical poetry, modern poetry and metrical poetry. The number of words in a poem is calculated by multiplying the number of sentences by the number of words in each sentence. In poetry, a line counts as a sentence, not a comma or a period. For example, there are 20 five-character quatrains, 28 seven-character quatrains, 24 six-character quatrains, 40 five-character rhymes and 56 seven-character quatrains.
