Oil is needed every where around the world. If you don’t believe it‚ drive your car month after month without getting an oil change or even

    answered‚ and the tiger’s origin is once again questioned. The rhythmic scheme of the poem is trochaic‚ as the feet within the lines are of a stressedunstressed pattern. Because these lines start with a stressed syllable‚ it is a type of falling meter pattern. I think this is important in the poem‚ because it starts out each line with a strong‚ stressed word.
