Iambic
I've lost desire to write of joy or fear,
and lately found all others' ideas drear.
Perhaps this shop will help me find some bliss
and somehow write less boring stuff than this.

Trochee
I am
Just a piece of driftwood floating
through the seas - erosive, tranquil,
practicing the art of noting,
savouring each gifted sample.

You're running a fine WS Wes

I love what you write
even when you complain. Maybe leading a workshop would get the muse back.
Your talent has always amazed me and others, not to mention sir Wesley.
Keep it up dear.

for the very, very kind comment and compliment

I'm not going to record these
you nailed it. The only point of possible contention for me is that the words practicing and savouring are more commonly pronounced as Dactyls, which throws the meter of the rest of the line, but it's trivial. In a longer work mostly in Trochaic our ears would stress the 'ings'.
