Re: International Talk in Iambic Pentameter Day

An iambic pentameter is a ritmic pattern of 5 five syllables.
The iambic means that it goes from an unstressed syllable to a stressed one (diVINE,caRESS,daDUM).
Penta makes it a five meter pattern.
here are a few fun ones.

You got me on that one.I had to return to your post and reread it.
Did you ever read:The declaration,Of Independance.
Or the first phrase of above mentioned?
I do not think that, that was just by chance
