Visual poems in classical Turkish literature are formed by hemistichs arranged by some poets in new and various ways. These poems have not got an aspect of deviation or revolting against it in the traditional sense. The Ottomans' figurative poems can be classified as poems drawn by concrete objects and those that form abstract geometrical figures. In this article a visual poem by Sâdıkî in the form of a cypress tree is examined. Taking this poem and similar ones as a starting point, various comments on the subject are made.
