Free Verse is an irregular form of poetry in which the content free of traditional rules of versification, (freedom from
fixed meter or rhyme).
In moving from line to line, the poet's main consideration is where to insert line breaks.
Some ways of doing this include breaking the line where there is a natural pause or at a point of suspense for the reader.
Following
the direction of Walt Whitman, Ezra Pound and T.S.Eliot, many modern day poets use this particular form of expression.
