Humor and Poetry

Principle purpose of this lecture is to present on Humor and Poetry. Humor in poetry can arise from a number of sources: Surprise; Exaggeration and Bringing together of unrelated things. Most funny poems have two things in common: Rhythm and Rhyme. Rhythm and Rhyme using more spirited language makes humorous situations even more humorous. If you take away the rhythm and rhyme, the humor vanishes.
