Review on learning points

In Term 3, I have learn about poetry. There are a lot of different type of poems, including limericks, haikus, tongue-twisters so on so forth.

The following are descriptions on these poems.

Limericks - Limericks are poems which is also known as poems which are nonsense. It consists of five lines in which the last line rhymes with the first two lines, and the third and fourth line rhyme with each other.

Haikus - Haikus are poems which the lines do not have to rhyme. Haikus consists of three lines, in which the first and third line has five syllabuses each and the second line consists of seven syllabuses.

Tongue-twisters - Tongue twisters are poems which sometimes rhyme. These poems are called tongue-twisters as they literally made your tongue twist! These poems consists of lines where line after line, there are several similar sounding words, thus making it difficult to say them quickly.

Parodies - Parodies are songs in which they make some popular songs into a more interesting one, with humorous lyrics. Parodies usually mean no insult but are just composed to let people have a good laugh.
