Descriptive Meditative Structure
There are many structures in which poems have been set upon; the different structures
have been in application since the first poem was created. One structure that has stood out over
time in many of the poems is the descriptive meditative structure. This text brings out more
information concerning the descriptive meditative structure which gives an insight on the poem
structure. One thing that stands out in this article is the simplicity in which the structure is. The
author displays the structure as one which is not only easy to use but well available in the
different structures of the poems. The dramatic monologue of the structure as described by the
author has been brought out as one that has three different parts. These parts have developed the
different scenes in the poems.
When describing a scene in a poem I think that there is no much structure used as the
description is concerned with the available scenes not the set out structures. The text continues to
show the supplemental poems which show the structure being focused by the author in the
article. I can relate with the classic structure especially when focusing on the poem “one o’clock
in the morning.” This poem shows that the structure is more of descriptive as the poem can be
described as a descriptive one. This structure as employed in the poems draws a line between a
narrator and the author. There is a brief difference in the two when this structure is used in
poems. Some of the poems which do not employ the structure tend to reference it one being
Davis poem as described by the author in the article.
I feel that the author prefers the descriptive meditative structure as compared to other
structures in poems. The use of this structure does not only develop the whole context of the
poem but also delivers the message of the author. I think that as an enthusiast of poems, it is
important to be aware of this structure as it tends to be common among the different poets. One

thing that I note when focusing on the article is that this structure is used by different categories
of poets. One particular category I can relate to is the romantics. Most of the poems by romantics
use the descriptive structure as most of them are focused on describing feelings and situations of
people involved in the poem.
I feel that description in a poem is better than using other structures; this is because of the
many poems that tend to rhyme with the structure. I also think that without the use of this
structure, the poem will not have any relevance as the relevance of the poem is first set out in its
structure. However, I think that there are some poems which can be developed using different
structures and still bring out the intended meaning. This piece of text and the different poems
included show that the structure is more flexible and therefore can be used even in poems where
the message to be delivered is dependent on the structure.
