英语中有类似绝句这样的短诗吗

汉语的绝句可类比英语的四行诗（quatrain ）。

但英文里这类诗韵式大多是AAAA， ABAB，AABB，很少有汉语诗歌的AABA形式。另外英文里的固定体裁的诗歌音节大多是偶数，比如trimeter为六音节，tetrameter为八音节，而septenary 这种七音节的几位罕见。

举个8音节抑扬格的诗吧：

In brightest day, in blackest night,

no evil shall escape my sight.

Let those who worship evil's might,

beware my power, green lantern's light.

Even Though, To Do So, How Can I Be So Slow

I Dont Know, I Been Told

Tear Drop, Hair Blow

GO GO GO

Blue Day,Going Down, My Heart Will Do Go On

Revenge, With Gun

Now You Weak, I Am Strong
