Answer:

Couplet refers to two lines of poetry that follow each other and rhyme.

Couplets also sometimes have the same meter, meaning the same number of beats or the same rhythm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Examples

When spring comes round with her magical wand,

And waves it over every field and pond,

I saw a little blue bird

I didn't even say a word

Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn

The sheep's in the meadow, the cow in the corn.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.

Once you start to give them your trust

They will start to fade away like dust

The last one is mines, ones are not.

Hope this helped!

Have a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious day!

Is this what u meant tho?
