I love the Petrarchian sonnet, which goes a-b-b-a; a-b-b-a; c-d-e-d; c-e. I know it's old fashioned, but I love this form. It was used by Milton, Wordsworth (I'm not crazy about his subject matter) and E.B. Browning. I wrote a few of them in French, because that language lends itself easily to rhyme.

i like unfastened verse poetry. it is the form i write. once I first began writing, i made confident all of it rhymed, yet then i began out to easily making suggestions bypass and that i think of it nonetheless sounds super as spoken be conscious artwork. u pronounced united states haikus, yet sorry. i think of it is the form of poetry i like least. to me, they are too short, even regardless of the undeniable fact that it is the purpose of the poem. 5 syllable, 7 syllable, 5. i think of that resricts the writers skill to place in writing concidering it is limitting the suggestions they have in selection of wording syllable smart.

I never care about the form a poem uses, because if the poem is good, then it should be transparent. It should not be the 1st or 2nd thing you notice about it. Otherwise it is a distraction.
