One graphical element that affects the way a poem sounds to a reader is the stanzas. Stanzas are groups of lines that are separated by a space in between, and the way they are organized can create a specific rhythm and pacing within the poem. The length and number of lines in each stanza can influence the reader's experience of the poem and how it sounds when read aloud.
I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct that the graphical element that most directly affects the way a poem sounds to a reader is the lines. The length and structure of lines in a poem can impact the rhythm, flow, and overall sound of the poem when read aloud. Thank you for pointing that out.
