Tennyson evidently enjoyed keeping each line strictly to three syllables and to the pattern / * /, the amphimacer, in "The Oak." We do have to reduce "soberer" to two syllables through syncope to make it fit, but that's not too hard to imagine: "sobr'er." With a little ingenuity one could also call it catalectic trochaic dimeter, omitting the final syllable in every line. But amphimacic monometer is rare enough to be worth valuing, when we can catch one.
/ * /
Live thy Life,
Young and old,
Like yon oak,
Bright in spring,
Living gold;
Summer-rich
Then; and then
Autumn-changed
Soberer-hued
Gold again.
All his leaves
Fall'n at length,
Look, he stands,
Trunk and bough
Naked strength.
Most of William Blake's poem "Spring" is in the same meter:
Little boy,
Full of joy;
Little girl,
Sweet and small;
Cock does crow,
So do you;
Merry voice,
Infant noise
