Regardless of whether it is traditional or modern poetry, the subject of a poem can be anything.  It could be about something as intense as [[suicide]], or as mundane as watching [[television]].  Since there are so many poems written about the important parts of life that affect all [[human]s ([[marriage]], [[death]], [[love]], and the natural world), there are names for poems with these subjects.  Clearly, not all poems fit into these categories.
     −
    * ''epithalamium'' - a poem that celebrates a [[wedding]]
  −
    * ''elegy'' - a poem that remembers the [[dead]]
  −
    * ''pastoral'' - a poem describing the joys or sorrows of living close to [[nature]] and away from the city
  −
    * ''[[love]]'' - a poem filled with expressions of joy, despair, passion, romance, spirituality, religion or unrequited love.
