Repetition: The act of repeating words, phrases, or lines in a poem to create rhythm, emphasize a point, or create a particular effect.
Rhyme scheme: The pattern of rhymes at the end of lines in a poem. It is usually represented by assigning a letter to each rhyme, with the same letter indicating lines that rhyme with each other.
Stanza: A group of lines in a poem that form a distinct unit, typically separated by a blank line or indentation. Stanzas are often used to organize the structure of a poem and can vary in length and form.
