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!

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.
