How many stanza are in the poem

There was an old man with a beard


There was an old man with a beard,
who said it is just as I feared!
Two Owls and a Hen,
Four Larks and a Wren,
Have all built their nest in my beard!

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

A stanza is a paragraph in a poem. Looking at the question, there is only one paragraph so there is 1 stanza. Also, a stanza can mean one set of rhyming words. In this case, there is rhyming words on the first, second, and last line. That is a very common rhyming pattern and that tells you it is one stanza.

Hope it helps!
