Prose is language that follows the natural flow or rhythm of speech, ordinary grammatical structures, or, in writing, typical conventions and formatting. Thus, prose ranges from informal speaking to formal academic writing. Prose differs most notably from poetry, which follows some type of intentional, contrived, artistic structure. Poetic structures vary dramatically by language; in English poetry, language is often organized by a rhythmic metre and a rhyme scheme.
Prose is writing or speech that follows natural patterns of grammar and everyday communication, ranging from casual conversation to formal academic work. It differs from poetry, which uses intentional artistic structures like rhythmic patterns and rhyme schemes to organize language in deliberate ways.
