Nowadays I see a lot of free verse. Have you considered challenging yourself to do other types of poems?

I had a poetry class in college where we had to write multiple different poetic forms. While it is fun to dabble, I definitely prefer free-verse. Having to adhere to set rules and standards takes the fun out of it for me a bit. It is a bit nostalgic though, reminding me of when I first started writing and everything was a ballad (ABAB) form because I didn't know anything else.
