Meter

Is there a meter in Russian that’s used as iambic meter is in English? I.e., commonly-used because it closely mimics the natural meter of speech?

Hexameter is used too! I once hear a story about street ad on a concrete fence, which said:

  Здесь за углом продаются решётки стальные

And some witty guy continued underneath:

  Их для дворца своего покупал шлемоблещущий Гектор
