Would Shakespeare have liked free verse now, not before? Should Hamlet sound free, instead of rhyme, which we adore May Poe have written The Raven in the same odd, magical flow? If words had not rhymed artfully in poetry crafted so long ago Clever poets proved their skills in a great rhyming scheme. Depicting moods as Escher did in his popular 'Scream' Wasn't philosophy authored by René Descartes? In terms of mind-body dualism thinking smart when you drift off on a meadow that is green focused upon a colorful nature scene White clouds float across the sky. pondered why birds may fly you understand that you just cannot deny But if you did, I reckon it might be the biggest lie. that Shakespeare's verses, as well as Poe's, were used from the start are striking - inspirational diamonds as they are - almost everyone's heart

Certainly Shakespeare's verses and the poems of Poe still sound beautiful as they have used rhyme in their poetic verse. They delight and enthrall us even after centuries as a brew of coffee in the morning ! Lovely shape and beautiful poem. Your variety amazes me.
