Poetry differs from prose in the aspect of the complexity of material, the attention to the effects of sound, and makes association between two or more things.

1. Poetry typically follows some type of pattern while prose does not follow any formal patterns of verse.

2. People use prose in everyday life, but poetry is not used in everyday life.

Hope I helped :-)
