Abstract: In the study of language and poetry, syntax—the arrangement of words and phrases to create well-formed sentences—plays a pivotal role in shaping the meaning and emotional resonance of a poem. While the structure of syntax often follows conventional patterns in prose, poetry tends to experiment with and manipulate these structures to achieve artistic, thematic, and emotional effects. The way words and phrases are sequenced in a poem can drastically alter its meaning, inviting readers to engage with the text in nuanced and dynamic ways.
