Detailed explanation-1: -Prose includes pieces of writing like novels, short stories, novellas, and scripts. These kinds of writing contain the kind of ordinary language heard in everyday speech.

Detailed explanation-2: -Poetic form refers to a poem’s physical structure; basically, what the poem looks like and how it sounds.

Detailed explanation-4: -Prose is a type of literature in which the language is used in its natural and organic form. Poetry is a type of literature that employs the aesthetic and rhythmic characteristics of language to convey meaning. Prose is not concerned with rhyme or rhythm.
