ESLtrash here and I'm having trouble hearing if these two lines scan as a (iambic) pentameter + tetrameter, stresses in brackets:
>When [I] see [you] I [think] of [Xan]a[du]
>Far a[way] as the [day] you [say] I [do]
So yeah any basic tips for writing poetry in English? To me it seems natural somehow to stress the first I and not the others, but should it always be stressed? Other than that I should probably find a replacement for 'far away' as 'far' is stressed innit.
