📌 Enjambment
Definition:
Enjambment is when a sentence, phrase, or thought runs over from one line of poetry into the next without a pause or punctuation at the end of the line. It creates a sense of flow, urgency, or continuation.
✅ Example:
From William Wordsworth’s Lines Written in Early Spring:
Through primrose tufts, in that green bower,
The periwinkle trailed its wreaths
Here, the thought flows from the first line into the second without a natural pause, carrying the reader smoothly forward.
And there it is! Now go ahead and use enjambment in your CXC prep/CSEC prep.
