Hi John,

Yes, each line of poetry should end with a paragraph mark, or each line
should begin with one, whichever it ends up happening when you don't
separate lines with spaces. Poetry is pretty much useless if the lines are
not separated by paragraph marks.

Thanks for keeping true to the poetry.  That matters a lot to those of us
who enjoy poetry.

Mayrie

I am preparing a book on Writing Metrical poetry for submission. It has lots
of poems. Should each line be in a separate paragraph? I am using Word 2007.

Thanks,
John
