Meter, meter I am going to meet her See her, see her, I am going to see her Greet her, greet her, I am going to greet her Treat her, treat her, I am going to treat her Please her, please her, I am going to please her Leave her, leave her, I am going to leave her What kind of meter is this would you say? I guess the fickled kind....

Sara Thank you for sharing this form. I have wondered at one time what an iambic pentameter is. I am humbled, as I know I have a lot to learn like this kind. Thank you for commenting on my "Serenity Response". That poem was dedicated to my son, Jershon. Love Dalila

I really enjoyed your witty verse, Sara. I think there is too much stress on meter. Your poem has a melody all its own. Shouldn't that be enough? (We all pronounce words differently and therefore it's nearly impossible to write something that will be a recognizable meter to everyone.) I wouldn't change a thing! Best wishes in Deb's contest. Love, Carolyn

Cute....smiling..laughing !! First line...I think you meant "meet" not 'met". One day I'll have a go at these "metered" poem forms. Enjoyed !!
