Free verse is a poem with no set rhyme or rhythm. Chef is going to cook a free verse poem.
Free verse poems are chef’s favourite…
…that’s because, much like Chef, free verse poems don’t follow any obvious rules.
Instead they often follow the rhythms of natural speech.
So that’s the way that we speak in everyday life with our friends and family.
While conventional poetry often has set rhyme and rhythm…
Just like that, yes - free verse doesn’t.
So the main thing you need to remember when writing a free verse poem…
…is that the usual rules don’t apply!
Description
A free-verse poem doesn’t have to rhyme or use a structure like other poems.
