Robert Frost wrote many poems using iambic pentameter, which is a type of poetic meter that has five 'feet,' with each 'foot' consisting of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. The pattern sounds like da-DUM da-DUM da-DUM da-DUM da-DUM. One of his most famous poems written in iambic pentameter is "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening." However, it is also common for Frost to employ variations and not keep a strict iambic pentameter throughout his poems.
