Poems are a bit like people - they have different ways of expressing themselves.
Some poems do nothing more than list ideas, while others tell long stories or reflect on deep and meaningful things.
Over the centuries, poets have dreamed up all kinds of poems to express their ideas.
You can use the structures they've developed to shape your ideas.

ACROSTIC
Acrostic poems are read downwards, the first letters making up the title of the poem.
