POETRY

Couplets are made up of two lines whose last words rhyme. They are often silly.

Example:
The cat ate a mouse
And then brought it to the house.

Triplets are made up of three lines. The rhyming pattern can be AAA or ABA

Example:

What a fine day
To go out to play
In the month of May

Quatrains are made up of four lines. The rhyming pattern can be AABB or ABAB.

Example:

I never saw a purple cow,
I never hope to see one:
But I can tell you, anyhow,
I'd rather see than be one.
