How to write a couplet for kids

Couplet Poems for Kids! Couplet poems, or couplet poetry are comprised of two rhyming lines of verse. They can be as short as one couplet (two lines), or as long as it takes to tell the poem. will have in common with a moose. will have in common with three meese. (Is that the plural for a mouse? Is grice the plural for three grouse?)

The rhyming words at the end of couplets do not have to be spelled the same -- rather, they simply have the same ending sounds. Choose a central idea about which to write. Then, write the first line of your poem. Select a rhyming word for the last word in the poem.

A foot is a specific combination of stressed and unstressed syllables. Every sonnet Shakespeare wrote was written in iambic pentameter. Eminem's "Lose Yourself" is modern example of iambic pentameter at high speed. End classic sonnets with a couplet to "turn" the meaning of the poem.

Use iambic pentameter to write heroic couplets. The heroic couplet, like those used in old British Poetry and Shakespeare, are carefully constructed so that each line has only ten syllables. They are written in iambic pentameter, and the last syllable of the line must be stressed.
