A couplet is a pair of lines that rhyme. Usually both lines have the same meter. A couplet expresses a complete thought and can be funny or serious. Some poems are made from several couplets put together.?

The couplet form suits a love poem, of course, because the pairing of the two rhymes, so close to each other on successive lines, mirrors the coupling of the two lovers.

Here’s an example of a short couplet:

April showers
Bring May flowers

Here is an example of a couplet poem:

The readers threatened (not in vain) with 'sleep.'"
