Couplet Poems
Couplet poems are very easy to write and great fun to read. They are made up of two lines that must rhyme. They can be of any subject so there is no limit on what you can write them about. There is not a set amount of syllables needed for couplet poems. It is suitable for any age, especially young children. It would be great if everyone has a go at writing their own couplet poems. Here are some of my own; I hope you enjoy reading them 🙂
Your eyes
Just like the summer skies
There is beauty in your eyes
Joy
When joy flows all within me
I know this was meant to be
Appreciate
You should appreciate and not complain
Because all it does is cause more pain
Nature
In winter nature falls into a deep sleep
Then wakes up in spring, beautiful and neat
Harvest
When harvest comes the crops are full
Winter then interferes to keep them cool
Love your flows
Learn to love your dark side
soon it will be your guide
Be positive
Let go of thoughts that make you sad
because you need to be happy and glad

I was delighted that you stopped by my blog and left a comment. This is my first time to your blog and I am fascinated. I love poetry and that it makes it possible to express the inexpressible.

Hi Marinela!
Great kind of the poetry. Who knows, maybe I will also try to write something in this style 🙂

Hi Marinela .. thanks for these thoughts – they’re very good ..
Birthdays are once in a year days ..
or once in a life time birthing day …
Birthday memories caress our ears
especially when you’re ninety years
My mother .. round this time .. thanks Hilary
I really didnt get to do the rounds for One Shot Wed this week so I’m glad I caught your couplets – each a delight.
Glad the feature went well too – thanks for letting us have that honor.
Happy weekend

It takes a lot of talent to be able to express a profound thought in two lines. Bravo, Marinela

I find the couplet poems very nice,
they are sparkling, funny, easy, concise
Happy Sunday, Marinela!
An excellent couplet post. Enjoyed them.
I enjoy couplets. I use them as an exercise to try and improve my work in iambic pentameter.
I like these you’ve shared.
I like these couplets! very nice 🙂
Short but sweet
your verse is neat.
What a neat poetic form! I’ve always been a bit of a haiku freak – often stuffing them into 140-character tweets while I walk the dog. But this? This is a neat new opportunity!
Hi Marinela,
Your couplets are really so nice
They show that you are smart and wise.
🙂
Keep up your good work!!

nice poem, you are real talent Marinela
Have you heard of ‘flarf’? Me neither but it turns out its poetry for the digital age. See todays (20th October) post for more information.
its very well done… I loved all of them….
Just to give you some back ground on this kind of couplet, it was also a very famous form of poetry done by the sufi and mystic saints like Kabir and Surdas… from India…

Very lovely, and your poems are easy to read. Same time they tell us the truth.. 🙂
Marinela, I love your verse
Yours is good but mine is worse.
Marinela, you’re such a poet
And you have a blog to show it.
Please keep giving us your views,
Versifying lovely Muse.
Being a former literature teacher, I think your post reminds me of an excellent lesson plan that both explains and motivates—plus, your couplets do not waste words and illustrate titles/concepts well in 2 lines.
Also, sincere thanks 🙂
…woa… what a wonderful treats Marinela… you do have excellent couplets here… simple they are yet very deep in meaning and truly a fun to read… i enjoyed each of ’em… thank you my friend!!!:)

Marinela,
__I am honored by your visit to my blog, and by your welcomed comment.
__I’ve noticed your birthday… mine was in 1943, and I too… have written since I was very young.
__Short stories, opinionated essays, views of nature, and what some people call poetry, [I’ve never spoken of myself as a poet] and I’ve considered all that I have written… my ‘Daily Therapy.’ I’ve made no solid effort to ‘publish’ in print and paper… though some are shown in anthologies.
__Here, I congratulate you for your early successes, and again, I thank you, Marinela; stay close to your goals! _m
another autumn treasure,
reading your poems is a pleasure
Thanks !
I started writing very young as well. You have a wonderful future ahead of you! I like your couplets!
Thanks for stopping by my blog! I hope you’ll stop in again!
fun! great couplets! I’ll have to write some!
Indeed couplets are ever ever sweet
It is where two lines in harmony meet.
Thank you for such creative flair
Words of wisdom and oh so fair.
Much love,
Rose Marie
