TRUE

Meter is a unit of rhythm in poetry. It refers to the organization of stressed and unstressed syllables in a verse, or within the lines of a poem.

There are different types of meter. The most common is the Iambic metter, in which an unstressed syllable is followed by a stressed syllable. The Trochee meter is the exact opposit: a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed sylable.

Other examples are the Dactyl Meter, which has one stressed syllable followed by two unstressed ones; and the Anapest Meter, which has two unaccented syllables followed by an accented one.

This is true. Meter is the basic pattern which occurs in a poem and deals with the number of feet in a verse and their stress patterns.

Can someone write me a descriptive paragraph of being in a forest please:)) (30 points)
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer: There I was sitting high above the ground, amongst the lengthy twisted surface of the branches. The surface was coarse and bristly though I couldn't help but run my fingertips over the exterior. The Wind carried a scent of fall leaves, sap and grass. This was my favorite place to sit and think. So much happening all at once but also nothing, you could close your eyes and have everything blank, but also close your eyes and have all your senses go haywire. The sound of a squirrel sprinting up a neighboring tree, the wind forcing itself amongst the leaves knocking them down or causing them to quiver. You could feel the breeze and smell the bark; though it was dirty it smelled clean and refreshing. If you open up your eyes there so much to see and observe, especially when so high up. Distinguishing the branches, how they intertwine and connect, how the clouds drifting above the world would cast shadows amid the ground. You can spot birds soaring through the sky or resting anywhere they please. It's a peaceful place but also chaotic, the ants scurrying around but you resting. Tranquil yet tumultuous, every living thing in its own world doing its own thing.
