What is free verse? How can someone write a poem without rhyming? Why would they do something like that?!

Free verse is 'A poetic form divided into lines of no particular length or meter, without a rhyme scheme.' - Wikipedia.

However, free verse can optionally contain forms of structure, such as repetition, occasional rhyme and conversation-like meter. The joy of reading free verse lies in finding the connections and discovering the underlying structures and meter employed by the poet.

absolute

pull the tricks from our sleeves
like new flowers

never mind the time
i need sunshine

another dream
the peril of my life

guided by the stars
free with you

from the first moment i saw you

How do you feel now, having read the poem?

Can you picture the scene, and the emotion in these lines?
