Abstract:The rhythm of modern Chinese poetry is closely related to the form of line arrangement. The line is not only a form of poetry rhythm,but also an important part of the written form of poetry. How the poet builds a line, how to arrange, break or connect a line, the length of the line,the use of enjambement, the construction of modern poetry from line to stanza and the construction process of the poem,shows the poet’s ability to control the rhythm of poetry. Reasonable and orderly line arrangement can not only help generate a harmonious auditory rhythm,but also create striking visual rhythm. If punctuation marks, enjambement or long lines of poetry are used in a poem, it will slow down the rhythm of a poem to a certain extent. The organic combination or orderly layout between the poetry line and stanza,or among the stanzas can help strengthen the tension of the semantic rhythm of a poem and construct a symmetrical semantic rhythm form. The interaction between modern poetry line arrangement and poetry rhythm determines that the line arrangement of modern poetry is a form of construction that has both rich and flexible space and rules to follow.
