The Characteristics of Odes
* Praise something. (socks, womanhood)
* Usually long. (often much longer than a sonnet)
* Poet often speaks directly to his/her subject.
* Elevate their subjects to a higher level. (leaf of grass to stars, celestial socks)
* Often less formal than sonnets—no strict rhyme and meter schemes.
