RHYTHMIC METER: POEM SWEETER

    Poetry is disciplined in a stream having units like ‘meter’ or ‘foot’ on 
    lines similar to measurements in length, though basically, poem 
    oozes from core of heart and rhythm follows in emotive urge. The  
    pattern must be convinced by a new entrant to the world of poetry.
   ‘Meter’ is the basic rhythmic structure. Unit of rhythm is defined
    as ‘foot’. Stressed and unstressed syllables designed in rhythmic
    pattern producing melodious sound initiate a verse to bloom. On 
   daily conversation a word seemed stressed or unstressed may play 
   opposite role to match with the associated accent, strong or heavy
   or light or simple corresponding pronunciation in poetry.
    Poetry is not mere a combination of spoken words with perfect 
   grammar and composition but a rhythmic resonance soothing to 
    ears in musical notes. Rhythmic meters have broad spectrum. Few are 
   illustrated.  Accented meter or an Iamb contains two syllables one stressed
    followed by an unstressed one.
  Iambic meter:     A   /sweet  / ca    /  rol /    sung  / well
                             u / s        /   u   / s    /       u     /   s 
                           In / church/ rang  /eve  / ning   / bell.
  Anapestic meter (two unstressed syllables followed by stressed one

   roll/ ing  / wheels / move/ at/ ease/   po /pu   /lace / to   / im   / press.
  Trochaic meter (one stressed syllable followed by unstressed one

      Dusk on River            Iambic Pentameter

                              Little brittle ripples jiggle at ease 
                Slim stream full brim: Dusk-dream, mild breeze.
               Sunrays loose glaze, dry leaves fly free: Calm tree.  	
             Chirping sparrow hopping on green grass in glee.
          Eve fades, darkens, star blinks, crescent Moon peeps.
         Couples chat, cheer, embrace, hug, press soft lips.
