The Free Verse in Poets Biography & Poetry Resource Directory

     

The wonderful, wonderful thing about free verse, is that it has very few distinct rules or boundries. It is similar to blank verse in that it does not rhyme, but unlike blank verse, it is not written in iambic pentameter. The rhythm or cadence of free verse varies throughout the poem. Though the words dont rhyme, they flow along their own uneven pattern.
