Stressed
Tomorrow has one stressed syllable. It is stressed on the second syllable.
"You" has only one syllable, so that syllable is stressed.
Stressed
Wonder is stressed on the first syllable.
The repetition of stressed and unstressed syllables in a poem or piece of writing is called meter, and it provides a beat or rhythm. Different types of meters include iambic (unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable), trochaic (stressed syllable followed by an unstressed syllable), and anapestic (two unstressed syllables followed by a stressed syllable), among others. The pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables can create a musicality and flow in a poem.
No, "travel" is not an unstressed syllable; it is a two-syllable word with the stress on the first syllable: "TRAv-el." The first syllable is stressed, while the second syllable is unstressed. Thus, "travel" contains both stressed and unstressed syllables.
The first syllable is stressed. The second is unstressed.

One stressed syllable followed by two unstressed is called a dactyl, and a line of verse written in that style is called dactyllic. Here are the other kinds of metrical feet as well: iamb: unstressed, stressed trochee: stressed, unstressed dactyl: stressed, unstressed, unstressed anapest: unstressed, unstressed, stressed amphibrach: unstressed, stressed, unstressed amphimacer: stressed, unstressed, stressed bacchius: unstressed, stressed, stressed antibacchius: stressed, unstressed, unstressed pyrrhus: unstressed, unstressed spondee: stressed, stressed tribrach: unstressed, unstressed, unstressed molossus: stressed, stressed, stressed
"But soft" is an example of iambic meter, with the stress falling on the second syllable of each word ("soft" is stressed, "but" is unstressed). This is a common metrical pattern in Shakespeare's poetry, where each foot consists of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable.
Iambic. An iamb, or iambus, consists of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one. A trochee consists of a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed one. Take your pick!
An unstressed syllable is like the first syllable in around. A-round has the syllable as stronger and therefore stressed but the first syllable (which is "a") is unstressed.
