> "The children like the ocean shore; We want to leave but they want more" is anexample of which form of poetry?And the answer: couplet. In poetry, a couplet is a pair of lines that typically rhyme and have the samemeter. Here's an example from Shakespeare's Sonnet 94: "For sweetest things turnsourest by their deeds; Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds."Photo credit: Heritage Auctions.Couplets are some of the most basicrelationships between lines in poetry. The two lines must work together in someway – whether that be in rhyme, meter or pattern – and usually are used to end astanza if the stanza isn't entirely populated by couplets already. There are several different types of couplets. The first, which populates muchof Medieval poetry and other narrative poetic structures, is called a HeroicCouplet. This type of couplet is a pair of rhyming iambic pentameters. Thismeans that each line begins a new rhyme in accordance with the last, and eachline is a verse with five metrical feet (no, not like the ones you walk on –metrical feet refer to a group of 2 or 3 syllables). Another prominent form of the couplet is the Shakespearean Couplet. AShakespearean Couplet is made up of three 4-line stanzas and one couplet.Shakespeare often ended his sonnets with a rhyming couplet that summed up themain theme of the poem. You might recognize this famous example in Shakespeare'sSonnet 18:> Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?Thou art more lovely and more temperate:Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,And summer’s lease hath all too short a date;Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;And every fair from fair sometime declines,By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm'd;But thy eternal summer shall not fade,Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st;Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade,When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st:So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.So long lives this indeed, William.
