Which feature makes a narrative poem different from other poems?

1 answer

One feature that makes a narrative poem different from other poems is the presence of a story or a narrative. Unlike other poems that may focus on emotions, descriptions, or contemplations, a narrative poem tells a coherent and sequential story, often with characters, setting, plot, and dialogue. It follows a specific narrative structure, including a beginning, middle, and end, and may include elements of conflict, resolution, and development of the main characters.
