Which meter is used in these lines from Shakespeare's Sonnet 18?

English

We know it is iambic because we are able to stress every other syllable. 


Just a little hint: Not all, but most poems are written in iambic. Even a lot of pop songs now-a-days are written in iambic meter  ;) 


I believe Shakespeare had about 150 sonnets and only a few were not written in iambic. Crazy.

What is one possible theme of the poem? A. Cherry blossoms are beautiful when they bloom all at once. B. Things that are importa
prohojiy [21]

This is definetly a tricky one, but you have to go back to the definition and meaning of 'theme.' A theme is the life lesson of a story or any other form of writing, movies, etc. So, I am not 100% on this, so I will say why I think for each answer. A; I definetly do not think it is A. B; doesn't sound right for me because even though the person in the poem is waiting for the bloom, he/she isn't talking just about waiting, he/she is talking about the time that is going by. C; It sounds like the cherry blossoms may bloom every year, but its not completely clear and doesn't fully match a theme. D; It sounds like the man/women is contemplating the life they have lived through seeing the cherry blossom for years. So I would say the and answer is D since that makes the most sense to me. Hope this helps! :)
