Journal 8: Couplet

A couplet is a pair of lines of meter in poetry. It usually consists of two lines that rhyme and have the same meter.  The poem should be at least 14 lines long and establish a clear end rhyme scheme.

Beneath the poem write three sentences about why you wrote the poem, three sentences about the poetic devices (include at least three poetic devices in your poem: ONE MUST BE ASSONANCE AND THE OTHER MUST BE ALLITERATION! You may not use repetition, enjambment or caesura), and three sentences about the specific form you chose and how the form does or does not follow all of the "rules" of the form.  Incorporate at least three vocabulary words from Unit 11.
