Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In poetry, a stanza is a dividing and organizing technique which places a group of lines in a poem together, separated from other groups of lines by line spacing or indentation. Stanzas are to poetry what paragraphs are to prose. Stanzas can be rhymed or unrhymed and fixed or unfixed in meter or syllable count.

Detailed explanation-2: -Poetry (derived from the Greek poiesis, “making"), also called verse, is a form of literature that uses aesthetic and often rhythmic qualities of language − such as phonaesthetics, sound symbolism, and metre − to evoke meanings in addition to, or in place of, a prosaic ostensible meaning.

Detailed explanation-3: -Similes, metaphors, and personification are three of the most frequently used forms of figurative language in poetry, and they are used to create mental associations between the concrete and the abstract to form one big picture.
