What is the movement of a poem?

If you are
asking about a specific poem, you need to submit another question and give the title of the
piece you are analyzing.

In general, many readers of poetry find a sense of
movement in the poems they read is imparted by the combined use of rhythm and rhyme. Rhythm
refers to the pattern of accented and unaccented syllables frequently used in poetry and most
obvious when the poems are read aloud. Different combinations are used by authors to create the
effect they are attempting to convey. The boldface syllables are the accented ones in this
"poem."

Twin-kle
twin-kle lit-tle
star!

How I
won-der what you
are.

Rhyme contributes to movement by connecting
the lines of a poem. The reader feels anticipation as s/he recognizes the pattern being created
by the repetition of certain combinations of letters and sounds. In the poem "Stopping by
Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost, the 1st, 2nd and 4th line of each stanza rhyme.
The 3rd line of each stanza rhymes with the 1st, 2nd, and 4th line of the next stanza.

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the
village though;
He will not see me stopping
here
To watch his woods fill up with
snow.

My little horse must think it
queer
To stop without a farmhouse
near
Between the woods and frozen
lake
The darkest evening of the
year.

He gives his harness bells a
shake
To ask if there is some
mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind
and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and
deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I
sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
