Q1- Are poetic devices necessary in a poem?

Q- How will a poem without poetic devices sound?

Q- Do think the message conveyed will be any different?

Read  the two stanzas. Do they sound same?

Am I good enough?

I'm not really sure.

In fact, I'm sure I'm probably not.

What made me think I could write this poem?

When I consider how my light is spent

Ere half my day, in this dark world and wide,

And that one talent which is death to hide

Lodged with me useless, though my soul more bent

Free verse is the name given to poetry that doesn’t use any strict meter or rhyme scheme. Because it has no set meter, poems written in free verse can have lines of any length, from a single word to much longer.
