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:

An Essay on Criticism: Part 2

......
"Where-e'er you find 'the cooling western breeze,'
In the next line, it 'whispers through the trees;'
In crystal streams 'with pleasing murmurs creep,'
The readers threatened (not in vain) with 'sleep.'"
......
 
Homework:Write a couplet poem.

The birds are singing

The daisies are blooming

The sun is getting up

On this early morning



The dew is rolling

The branches are dancing 

I whispered to them

Hello my happy garden
