What do they most often use in poetry?

"Verse", the individual line format of poems, is used most often in poetry. In fact, if the work is not in verse format, it isn't even poetry. One problem with this answer though is that it is a tautology. It is like saying "poetry is used most often in poetry." Not very helpful. So another answer could be "meter." Meter is the rhythmic inflection of stressed and unstressed syllables of the words in each line of verse. Not all poetry has meter though. Some poems have lines written without a specific metric format. This is called "free verse." Note that even lines of a poem that have no meter are still called "verse." "Rhyme schemes" are a distant third. Poems need not rhyme to be considered poetry.


Did shakespeare write free verse poetry?

Shakespeare did not write free verse poetry in the modern sense, as his works are primarily characterized by structured forms, such as iambic pentameter and rhyme schemes. His sonnets, for instance, follow a specific structure with a set number of lines and a specific rhyme pattern. While he occasionally experimented with meter and rhythm, his poetry adheres to traditional forms rather than the free verse style that became popular in later literary movements.

How many lines do free verse have?

It has 4 lines.. well to create a sufficient piece of short work well, you could possibly do about 4 to 5 line. ___ Actually, there is no set number. A short poem could conceivably be a single line and still be a poem, although 2 lines might make it clearer that it isn't an attempt at a sentence. :)
