Iambic Meter

A poem should always end in rhyme
And this means each and every time
And if it doesn't end in rhyme
It can not be a poem of mine

1-2 / 1-2 / 1-2 / 1-2

Mike to have pentameter there must be 5 groupings of [unstress STRESS] which would equal 10 syllables per line..you have time to correct this..it cam still be iambic with any even numbered syllable count, the blogs have more info Light & Love
