Compared to what?
But the answer would probably be negative. It all depends on the message and the portrayel.
A sonnet typically has fourteen lines and a set rhyme scheme. There are two main types: Italian (Petrarchan) with an octave (abbaabba) and a sestet (cdecde or cdcdcd) rhyme scheme, and English (Shakespearean) with three quatrains (abab cdcd efef) and a final rhymed couplet (gg).
A poem of four lines is called a quatrain. It is a common form in poetry that often follows a specific rhyme scheme or metrical pattern. Quatrains can be found in various types of poems, including sonnets and ballads.

I don't think so, but I know many other people think free verse poems should have rhyme and meter. Since this question says "rhyme and meter" I am clustering those together and my answer is considering whether free verse poems ALWAYS have both rhyme and meter, not just rhyme (not to mention the different types of rhyme), or meter (not to mention the types of meter too). And the use of the words ALWAYS in the question, almost forces me to answer "no." To me, there are ALWAYS exceptions to every rule. (HA- I need to practice what I preach, eh? LOL)
It's just called 'rhyme'. You could certainly just call it 'rime'. But if you want to specify that the rime comes at the end of lines (rather than in the middle (internal rime) or from middle to end (leonine rime)) - use the term 'endrime'.
ABAB describes the rhyme scheme: the first and third lines rhyme, and the second and fourth lines rhyme. A:Flowers Blooming in May, B:Birds in the sky Flying; A:Oh This Flower will Smile Today, B:Tomorrow it will be Dying.
A sonnet is a specific form of poetry characterized by its structure and rhyme scheme. It typically consists of 14 lines, often written in iambic pentameter. The two most common types are the Shakespearean (or English) sonnet, which follows the rhyme scheme ABABCDCDEFEFGG, and the Petrarchan (or Italian) sonnet, which has a rhyme scheme of ABBAABBACDCDCD. Sonnets often explore themes of love, nature, or philosophy, culminating in a volta or turn in thought.
There is no such thing as a ''complex'' rhyme scheme but there are many types of rhymes schemes that require advanced skills to master, such as the ''full verse'' scheme that asks a great vocabulary from the writer. There is also multi syllabic rhymes that aren't actually a scheme but that can turn a simple couplet into rich lines
One example of a five-line poem structure is the limerick, which has a specific rhyme scheme and often a humorous or playful tone. Another example is the cinquain, which has a set syllable pattern across its five lines (2-4-6-8-2).
Some common subtypes of poetry include sonnets, haiku, limericks, and free verse. Sonnets consist of 14 lines with a specific rhyme scheme, while haiku is a traditional form of Japanese poetry with three lines and a 5-7-5 syllable structure. Limericks are humorous poems with a specific rhyming pattern, and free verse does not follow a specific meter or rhyme scheme.
No. Definitely not. In fact, I would say that most modern poetry does not rhyme. Here is a page where you can read several contemporary poems and see a lot of different types of free verse: http://www.loc.gov/poetry/180/p180-list.html Rhyming isn't bad, but it takes a lot of work to do it well, and modern poetry has moved away from it in most cases.
Acrostic poems are types of poems which use words for their subject. Each line of the poems starts with a letter from that subject word. These types of poems do not have to rhyme. It is sometimes referred to as a name poem.
