Abstract. This article analyzes the linguistic and stylistic features of poetic speech. The study examines, on a scientific basis, the specific characteristics of poetic language at the phonetic, lexical, morphological, and syntactic levels. The results show that poetic speech is a complex and multi-layered system that emerges from the purposeful aesthetic organization of language units. The research has significant theoretical and practical importance for the linguopoetic analysis of poetic discourse.
