    It's so weird to hear a British Englsih poem recited by an American speaker. Thanks for all the analysis ,though. Highly appreciated.

      I do not understand your comment. What is so weird about it. British and American are English speakers.

    Probably "Continuous" should be pronounced as 'con-tin-njes' . That would stress the 8-syllable pattern.

    Why is a cloud lonely?
    A good question from a reader.
    WW was trying to look for a rhyme for 'crowd' and he pulled in 'cloud'.

      Its not like that. A cloud is lonely, because like it floats alone in tha sky. As lonely as a cloud isa simile

    It’s obvious that you are trying too reach out to an audience that is unfamiliar with poetry and a good job of breaking down the pome into its basic concepts but I’m sorry to say that your reading is just a little too flat and a bit monotone add a little inflection please that goes a long way towards understanding what is the meaning of it

    continuous is a 3 syllables word if the /u.ə/ in the final position are seen as more of the diphthong /uə/ rather than the two seperate vowels /u.ə/; so, instead of pronouncing it as /kənˈtɪn.ju.əs/, pronounce it as /kənˈtɪn.juəs/.. specially that /ə/ is a very weak vowel to head a one consonant syllable..

      I thought the same!

    • @tomasprudek-gh8xo

      I was thinking the same, but it really is 9 syllables, I haven't found any reference transcribing the last two syllables as a dipthong. Your pronunciation is more suitable for the third person present simple "continues". In iambic tetrameter it is allowed to break the structure a little bit, the important thing is to begin with an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one.

      And there is another line with 9 syllables - the last line in the first stanza
