Choose the poem that is free verse.Like a fleet with bellying sails,Like the great bulk of a sea-cliff with the staccato bark of waves about it,Like the tart tang of the sea breezeAre you.And I am sometimes proud and sometimes meek,And sometimes I remember days of oldWhen fellowship seemed not so far to seekAnd all the world and I seemed much less cold.
