The Rime movement refers to a specific style of poetry that emphasizes the use of rhyme and meter. It emerged in the late 19th century as a reaction against the free verse movement, which allowed for more flexibility in structure. Rime poetry often features a consistent pattern of end rhymes, creating a musical quality that enhances the reading experience. This movement is closely associated with poets like Robert Frost and Edna St. Vincent Millay, who skillfully employed traditional forms while exploring contemporary themes. The Rime movement has influenced various literary works, encouraging writers to balance creativity with established poetic conventions.
