Answer:

Different characteristics define each of them.

Explanation:

Sonnets could be defined by several characteristics: a) Iambic pentameter is used (5 pairs of syllables per line and the second one is stressed), b) 10 syllables are written in every line, c) they all have 14 lines. According to the different kind of sonnet, the rhyme structure could be different. As we can see, the structure is very rigid. On the other hand, free verse means that -free: there are no other rules than the ones the poet establish per every poem. Sometimes, the same poem can hold more than one way of dividing the verses: the speaker could go from long verses to a one syllable ones.

Sonnets belong to a very particular era of human history; due to that, there are some particular topics chosen by the poets who wrote or write those kinds of poems. Besides nowadays it is not very common, sonnets' writers usually take the same structure and the same topics the poets from the past did. Free verse poems discuss a bigger variety of topics, such as different forms. Maybe a poet who wants to discuss about today's topics may choose a free verse poem instead of a sonnet. Besides that, nowadays free verse poems are widespread, while sonnets are not.

The reason that you should use a free verse poem is because you can express yourself without having to rhyme or have rhythm on any of the subjects. While on sonnets you are expressing gratitude towards something that is either true or false. On the contrary they are both expressing something that is expressed with a feeling either false or true.

The reason you should use choose each of these forms is because it can be known to the others as something you want the world to know as an experienced or not. But the truth is you don't have to be in the world's pressure on what to write about. It is all about on how you feel as a person on that topic..

Write a story which ends with " and yet he did it"<br><br><br><br><br><br>​
Deffense [45]

After years of wanting to raise a pet kitten, my parents finally allowed me to have one. I was extremely excited and could barely contain my happiness when we went to the animal shelter. However my dad put a specific condition for me to raise the cat "he won't be able to roam around the house," he said. Because of this condition, we had to empty the last room in the house, which would be the place where the kitten would stay. There we spread cat towers, footrests, scrapers, litter box and everything the cat could need to have a happy life.

When we arrived at the shelter, I carefully observed each cat present in the place and chose a black kitten that was meowing a lot. I think he wanted to get my attention and he did it. The kitten was full of energy and I believed it would be simple to take care of him. However, I was completely wrong.

The kitten was extremely smart and managed to escape the room prepared for him at all times. We couldn't keep him there, because he found a way to escape. Although this is a very funny situation, we tried to seal all the ways out and were overcome by fatigue. Our last attempt was to reduce the empty space under the door. We thought that my father would complain too much about the situation and that the cat would not be able to conquer him, but we were wrong again. My dad, who had no fondness for cats, was completely blown away by our kitten's cleverness, we thought he wouldn't allow the cat to stay in the house, but yet he did it.
