Tone, Mood

Tone in poetry is an important for any aspect of a poem. If the tone and mood of the poem are not in synch with one another it can create an negative look for the poem. For example, in the BBC version of Hamlet, the actors did not really corrilate to what we as a class had agreed was to be the way Hamlet was to be acted out. Because of this, the BBC version seemed awkward and did not come across smoothly.
