Characteristics of prosodic poetry:
1, the number of sentences is fixed: rhyme feet have strict requirements on the number of sentences and the number of words. Generally, a poem has eight sentences, each with five or seven words. Five-character rhyme is called five-character rhyme, and seven-character rhyme is called seven-character rhyme. Of these eight sentences, two are couplets, and * * * has four couplets, namely the first couplet, the parallel couplet, the neck couplet and the tail couplet. If a poem is more than eight sentences, it's called an exclusive law or a long law.
2. Rhyme is rigorous: rhyme is rigorous, generally rhyme is flat, rhyme is at the end, and rhyme cannot be changed in the middle. The rhyme of metrical poems has a fixed position, and it is generally rhyming with sentences. It is precisely because of these regular rhymes that metrical poems are catchy and easy to recite.
3, pay attention to levels: the levels in rhyme have a specific format, pay attention to adhesion pairs, generally speaking, one pair, two pairs stick. The requirements of leveling are very strict. It is necessary to avoid the monotonous repetition of "flat and even" and the embarrassing phenomenon of "isolated and flat" and "three-tone".
4. Require antithesis: Regular poetry requires neat antithesis and the same grammar. Generally, the third and fourth sentences (that is, couplets) and the fifth and sixth sentences (that is, necklaces) must be opposed. The types of duality are working pair, wide pair and borrowing equivalence. Workers are relative to parts of speech and meanings that need duality; Wide pairs only require the same part of speech; Borrowing means using homophones or borrowing other words to type.
5. Rich in content: Rhyme is rich in content and can be used for scenery writing, narration, lyricism, discussion and so on. Poets express their thoughts and feelings and views on social life by using various images and rhetorical devices.
6. Far-reaching artistic conception: Rhyme has far-reaching artistic conception and often expresses infinite meaning through limited words. Poets create profound artistic conception by describing natural scenery, expressing personal feelings and reflecting social reality, so that readers can feel their unique charm when enjoying poetry.
Generally speaking, metrical poetry is a beautiful, standardized and regular form of poetry, and its rhyming, leveling and antithesis are all aimed at creating better artistic effects, so that readers can feel its unique charm when enjoying it.
