Question

What kind of punctuation is proper to use in a free verse poem?

Answer 1

The punctuation marks - comma, hyphen, colon, and period - are used the way they would be used in a paragraph. Rules for capitalization are also followed. The first word in every sentence is capitalized, and so is the pronoun I. Traditionally, in poetry, the first word of each line of the poem is also capitalized

Thanks :)

Answer 2

Free verse is not poetry without form or rules. It is not written as an essay and then broken into lines. The final form is not what makes it a poem; it is the simultaneous collaboration of vocabulary, punctuation, and line break. ... Simply brainstorming, then adding line breaks does not constitute a poem.
