Free Verse LITERACY · 7TH GRADE Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. Free verse is poetry without a regular metre or rhyme scheme, which does not mean it has no form. Its structure comes from line breaks, rhythm of speech, repetition, and the shape on the page, and the line break is its most important tool: ending a line on a particular word gives that word weight and can hold a meaning in suspense until the next line resolves it. Walt Whitman is the form's great early practitioner in English, using long, catalogue-like lines, while William Carlos Williams used very short ones for the opposite effect. Free verse is often assumed to be easier than formal verse, and it is usually harder, because the poet has no inherited framework to lean on and must justify every break. Questions: 1 What gives free verse its structure? 2 Why is the line break its most important tool? 3 Why is free verse often harder than formal verse? www.littleactivity.com 7th Grade · Literacy
