Today We Learn Iambic Meter by DragonSkulls
Write a Children's Rispetto writing prompt entry


Iambic meter's simple verse
you kids today will overcome.
Just say aloud and all rehearse
da Dum da Dum da Dum da Dum.

Now write your piece like Shakespeare would
while mocking those who wish they could.
Today you'll get the A's you earn
through basic skills a child could learn.
