Difference between Prose and Poetry

 

 Prose and poetry are the two commonly found literary forms; in which prose is a written work,  contains sentences and paragraphs, and does not have any metrical structure. Where as, poetry  is based on a particular lyrical  form, that creates a rhyme and rhythm. 

 

The basic difference between prose and poetry is that we have sentences and paragraphs in prose, whereas lines and stanzas can be found in a poetry. Further, there is regular writing in prose, but there is a unique/ special style of writing a poetry. indeed, poetry is a rhythmic creation of beauty while prose is a direct expression of facts and figures.
