Classify the poem type: Peace is... When you are outside on a nice warm day With a cold glass of yellow lemonade. Slurp, slurp, slurp. Feeling the warm sun on my back, Rubbing my hands through the wet green grass, Listening to the birds singing a distance away. Quiet... Now that's PEACE! Options: free verse, ode, ballad, sonnet

O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done, The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won, The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting, While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring; But O heart! heart! heart! O the bleeding drops of red, Where on the deck my Captain lies, Fallen cold and dead.
