A sonnet is a poem consisting of fourteen lines that has a strict rhyme scheme and specific structure.  (aba)

Free verse refers to poems that lack strict rhyme and you could use slant rhymes. It also lack structure.  (acad) Free verse is a literary device that may be defined as poetry that does not have limitations of regular meter or rhythm, and does not rhyme with fixed forms.

A sonnet is a poem in a specific form which originated in Italy. The Shakespearean sonnet has the rhyme scheme ABAB CDCD EFEF GG, creating three quatrains (four lines in a group) and a closing couplet (two rhymed lines).
