quotes or italicize poems?

i know that for books and plays it’s italicize and for short stories and articles it’s quotes, but what about poems?

Generally you underline (or italicize) the titles of books, movies, etc. Likewise with the title of a book of poems, or an epic poem like the Iliad. But for a normal poem, you just enclose the title in quotation marks. For more information on how to punctuate different titles, you can go to…http://homeworktips.about.com/od/mlastyle/a/titles.htm

Hope that helps!
