Answer:

hi!

Explanation:

Most poems are divided into stanzas, groups of lines, which function like the rooms of a house. In fact, stanza literally means 'room' in Italian. Traditionally, different kinds of stanzas are defined by their meter, the pattern of strong and weak syllables in each line, and rhyme scheme, the order in which rhymes occur. Of course, free verse, poetry that doesn't use rhyme or meter, can also use stanzas to create pauses and organize the poem on the page.

On the basis of a fixed number of lines and rhyming scheme, traditional English language poems have the following kinds of stanzas:

• Couplet

• Tercet

• Quatrain

• Quintain

• Sestet

1. Here I still sit in disbelief
As my beloved sister forever falls asleep
Perhaps if she had only moved a second before
She would never have knocked on Death's door.
President Snow witnessed the explosions from his mansion up above
Chuckling to himself as he watches the innocent bleed out their lives
The sent of roses and blood is overpowering
It takes all I have not to run away cowering.
I am the Mockingjay, I must be strong
I need to avenge the ones I love
"Goodbye, my sweet Prim," I whisper to my dear sister.
Rising to my feet I fit an arrow to my bow
I will be the one who kills Snow.
