Hey there!
The poem version of "paragraphs" are stanzas. For example, if this were my poem:
My car is very shiny (first stanza)
I drive it every day (second stanza)
If it gets hurt (third stanza)
I will throw it away (fourth stanza)
It's almost like an essay composed of paragraphs, but a poem is much shorter and it's, therefore, a poem composed of stanzas.
Hope this helps!
