There is quite a debate for the poets in us, as to whether Rhythm and Meter or Free Verse is more popular at competition sites.
Here is your opportunity to tell us your thoughts.
Which do you prefer and why?

QUOTE (Merlin @ Aug. 28 2004, 09:56) We're on the same wavelength, Cleo. I will admit to leaning strongly to r & m, simply because the vast majority of fv is not up to my snuff.
I'd like to raise a comparison for consideration - - - music.
Personally, I can't stand jazz, yet it exists, and has a wide following. In truth, it drives me to where I shut the radio off almost as fast as a jazz piece comes on. I actually moved my radio within arm's length of the computer, for convenience sake!
Studies done on the subject show that certain music puts the mind at ease, and aids in a person's ability to study, or relax... different things. Baroque music is said to be best. It has also been established that teenagers can do very well studying while listening to rock. Others may do the same with their own preference.
Music affects the brain in particular ways - even peculiar ways.
Does this relate to poetic styles? Do some age groups prefer one over the other?
Merlin Another good topic for discussion Eric! Thank you! :lovie:
I will start a new thread for that one and comment in it now...
Stay tuned! ~Cleo :pharoah:
