verse

A verse is a single line or a group of lines in a poem or song that forms a unit of meaning or rhythm. It helps organize the piece, creating structure and flow. Verses often contain important ideas, emotions, or storytelling elements, and are separated by spaces or different sections. Think of it as a paragraph in prose, but crafted with specific sounds, rhythms, and patterns to enhance the overall experience. In music or poetry, verses set the stage for the chorus or the main message, guiding the listener or reader through the piece.
