Verse Structure

Verse Structure is a system of formal organization in poetic discourse that, across languages and traditions, patterns units such as lines, cola, meter, rhyme, and pauses into recurrent, hierarchically related sequences that distinguish verse from prose and from other modes of verbal art.
