<span>iambic pentameter

This line is in iambic pentameter because it has ten syllables that alternate unstressed then stressed.

 u        /       u         /         u         /         u      /      u       /
</span><span>To | swell | the | gourd,| and | plump | the | ha | zel | shells
  1      2       3        4         5         6        7      8     9      10

When trying to identify meter and rhythm, start with two syllable words-this will help identify where some stresses sit in the line.</span>

"I am sorry, Mom. I will try arriving earlier next time," I apologized.
