Explanation:

Free verse is the form of writing which is free from any form of pattern or restrictions about the written work. It follows no set rules nor does it have to have any style or direction to be followed. Rather, it allows the writer to do and write however he wishes it to be done, making it a "free" form for him.

This type of poetry writing has no set number of lines to be maintained, nor any limitation on how it should be presented or written. There is no need for the words to rhyme nor any meter or rhythm, or a pattern for the stressed and unstressed syllables. It is all dependent on the writer to present the work however he finds it, and gave a full 'freedom' on him to write how he wants it to be done.
