Classical Windermere poetry usually uses the 4+4 octosyllable meter (''χăynung slămaaχ''), the 4+6 decasyllable meter (''χăynung slămaaχ te tălaχ''), the 5+5 decasyllable or the 6+4 decasyllable.
===Early Classical Windermere poetry===
Early Classical Windermere poetry, such as poetic parts of the Imθumăytil, used a form of cynghanedd (some sequence of sounds appearing in the same order in the two parts of a line), instead of rhyme.


Classical Windermere poetry was influenced by Classical Tseer poetry which used these meters; different meters were deemed appropriate for different contexts.
===Later Classical Windermere poetry===
 
Post-Imθumăytil, later Windermere poetry was influenced by Classical Tseer poetry which used these rhymes; different meters were deemed appropriate for different contexts. In particular, later religious poetry used these schemes. Poetry from the later period usually has more rigid meters:  the 4+4 octosyllable meter (''χăynung slămaaχ''), the 4+6 decasyllable meter (''χăynung slămaaχ te tălaχ''), the 5+5 decasyllable or the 6+4 decasyllable.
The poems in the Imθumăytil are from a more archaic layer of Classical Windermere poetry, which used a form of cynghanedd (certain elements appearing in the same order in the two parts of a line) instead of rhyme.
