Fable
A fable is a story that teaches a lesson or a
moral. It usually has an animal as the main
character who has human qualities.

Folktale
Folktales are stories that have been told for
several generations. As they are passed, the
truth gets stretched from reality. Some
folktales try to explain why natural things
happen.

Poetry
Poetry is a short way to express emotions or
ideas to the reader's or listener's mind. Poems
do not have paragraphs, they have stanzas.
Poems do not use correct capitalization and
punctuation. A lot of poems rhyme.
My Kitten Won't Stop Talking My kitten won't stop
talking.
She just prattles night and day.
She walks
around repeating
nearly everything I say. My kitten never
says, "Meow."
She never even purrs.

She mimics me instead
in that
annoying voice of hers. She waits for me to
speak,
and then she copies every word,

or begs me for a cracker,

or says, "I'm a pretty bird." I'm not sure what
to do, and so
I simply grin and bear it.

She's been this way since yesterday
that's when
she ate my parrot. --Kenn Nesbitt
