Modern poets express many of their poetic concepts in expressive formats and use rhetorical criteria, in such a way that without using literary Devices, their poetic meanings are crude and lack inductive power. Rhetorical elements in modern poetry, due to the nature of poetry, have passed the stage of classical rhetoric devices and arrays, and have been linked to the features and elements of contemporary literary criticism in the form of a set of criteria that interact with literary language and reflect in poets' works.  This paper attempts to probe the Aesthetic Criteria in the Ode La vaghta lelboqa (there is no time for crying) by Amal Donqol using the descriptive-analytic method. Criteria and rhetorical techniques in this poem are expressed in three levels: phonetic, semantic, and lexical, and in the form and content of the poem, it has artistic and semantic functions.

They, Moreover, play an essential role in depicting the poetic experience and interpretation of his thoughts and emotions.
