* Lyric Poetry: Generally, poetry focused on expressing personal emotions, thoughts, and feelings. It's often musical and can be quite subjective.
* Forms That ARE Lyric Poetry:
* Sonnet: A 14-line poem with a specific rhyme scheme.
* Ode: A poem of praise or celebration.
* Elegy: A poem expressing sorrow or mourning.
* Free Verse: Poetry that doesn't follow a strict rhyme or meter.
* Haiku: A 3-line poem with a specific syllable count.
* Limerick: A humorous five-line poem with a specific rhyme scheme.
* Forms That ARE NOT Typically Considered Lyric Poetry:
* Epic Poem: A long, narrative poem telling a story of heroic deeds. (Focus on storytelling, not personal expression)
* Dramatic Poetry: Poetry written to be performed, often with dialogue and characters. (Focus on storytelling and character development)
* Concrete Poetry: Poetry where the visual arrangement of words creates a shape or image. (Focus on visual element, not personal expression)
Therefore, the answer to your question depends on the context.
If the context is a list of poetry forms, the one that is NOT a form of lyric poetry would be the one that doesn't focus on personal expression and is instead focused on storytelling, performance, or visual arrangement.
