Posted by: Ms. Scott | March 21, 2008 | 28 Comments |



Tell me the specific name of this type of four-line poem and the name of the person who originated (created) this type of verse. ~The following poem is an example of a _Clerihew_ , originated by _Edmund Clerihew Bently__.    These four-line poems make a brief, humorous statement about a person.  The first line ends in the person’s name and an AABB rhyme pattern is used.   There are no meter or syllable constraints. 

We have a teacher, Ms. Gleit,

Who tells us what is right.

Always a New Yorker at heart,

From her Yankees she never will part.

Ms. Scott
I think that the answer is:
the type of poem is a Quatrains and it is a AABB kind of poem. There isn’t any one person who created the quatrains. It was developed and is used by many people.
