Poetry is written in verse form.
However, not all verse has a rhyme scheme.

With out a proper rhyme scheme and meter, it is that much tougher to hold the viewer’s attention glued to the poem. The words have to be powerful enough to make up for the absence of rhyme scheme and a proper form. Sure, the sheer lack of rule gives a writer more creative freedom and room to experiment, but the downside is the words are all you have to hold the attention of the reader. Your words have to be powerful enough to leap out from the page and weave images or emotions that enthrall the reader and keep him captivated. A free verse poem has minimal frills and fuss, it is stark words that portray the thoughts of the poet

Poetry is the genre.
Verses are like paragraphs in poetry.
