Jim,
You crack me up. That sounds like a twitter poem coming on, or perhaps a
cinquain.

Hi Bridgit,
Well then, I will have to make an insect poem. Each line with six feet.

No, there's no rule to meter or line break in blank verse. It's heavy on
the blank part of the verse, smile.

Hi Bridgit,
I think you answered my question. There doesn't have to be a certain
number of feet per line, then.

Thanks.
