Stanza

Definition: Stanza is a like a "paragraph" of a poem. Stanza is a group of line form a division of a poem, usually follow a rhyme.
Ex: You can't order a poem like you order a taco.
      Walk up to the counter, say, "I'll take two"
      and expect it to be handed back to you
      on a shiny plate.
Signification: Stanza let the reader rest a bit and think back about what they red. It also a good way to move from this idea to another idea.
