Stanza

A Stanza is a paragraph

EXAMPLE:

Your presence is requested at
A moment of transcendence.
The mystery of turning one
Requires your attendance.

You will accomplish something more
Than favor, fun, or duty
By witnessing the passage of
A moment of great beauty.

Your presence is requested at
A moment of transcendence.
The mystery of turning two
Requires your attendance.

You will witness something more
Than monsters going wild:
The turning of a sweet young soul
From infant into child.

Your presence is requested at
A moment of transcendence.
The mystery of fifty years
Requires your attendance.

We will accomplish something more
Than managing to dine:
We'll mark the turning of a soul
From juice to good red wine.

Your presence is requested at
A moment of transcendence.
The mystery of eighty years
Requires your attendance.

We will manage something more
Than food and cake and brew:
We'll mark the turning of a soul
Towards islands rich and new.
This poem have 8 STANZA.

Significant -  Stanza helps seperate ideas of each paragraph
