Home

True paradise lies in the home
The beauty of it all is unimaginable,
Whilst it might be different for some,
To me, it's the best place to come,
I lay there in my bed
watching the night sky,
Til the day passes by,
we come to realise
My dreams
Of paradise

  2. A lovely poem full of touching, heartfelt sentiment - and genuinely moving.

    However, on the IAMB front, you have a way to go.

    Line 1 IS iambic, but it is FOUR feet and not FIVE (i.e. a pentameter):
    true PARaDISE lies IN the HOME
    Line 5 is iambic and a trimeter, as required, so well done!
    Lines 8 and 9 also fulfil the demands of the task.

    But the other lines EITHER have too many syllables and/or they don't just use IAMBS.

    Have another look at my original post from the weekend and see if you can redraft your poem some more?
