I talk a bit about metric in anglophone poetry and read a rather silly sonnet I wrote for my anniversary a couple of years ago (my attempt at iambic pentameter).
I could have spent hours using Screencastify.

Iambic pentameter to you I write,
With words confusing, complex, and light,
Syllables stressed unstressed and trite,
Would I understand if I got it right?
Very interesting, Julia! I appreciate how clearly you explained the concept of iambic pentameter. Poetry is not my specially, and I remember being so confused when this was introduced to me the first time. I am really learning a lot from your inquiry and look forward to learning more! Also, very sweet poem. Thank you for sharing! 🙂
