Step-by-step guide to analysing unseen poetry:Read the poem twice to identify a subject matter - What is the poem talking about? What is the poet trying to say about that thing?Discuss the poem's form and structure - How many stanzas are there? Is there a rhyme scheme? Why is it structured like this?Identify key themes of the poem and highlight poetic devices which link to these themes (for example, imagery and poetic references to the themes through devices such as simile, metaphors and motifs)Form an argument regarding the message the poet is trying to deliver to the reader - How is this supported by the text? Give quotes as examplesAs a conclusion, you can write a few sentences detailing how the poet is successful in delivering their ideas or speculate how the poem might be interpreted differently
