A couplet is a pair of lines of meter in poetry and verse. It usually consists of two lines that rhyme and have the same meter. While traditionally couplets rhyme, not all do.

Poetry typically includes rhyme and meter. Rhyme involves words that have similar sounds at the end of their lines, while meter refers to the pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables in a line of poetry. Together, rhyme and meter help create a rhythmic flow and enhance the musical quality of poetry.
A quatrain is a stanza or poem consisting of four lines. It is a common form used in various types of poetry, allowing poets to present their ideas concisely in a structured way. Quatrains can follow different rhyme schemes and meter patterns.
Rhythm in music is similar to the meter and cadence of poetry. Both involve patterns of stressed and unstressed sounds that create a sense of flow and structure. In both cases, rhythm enhances the overall impact and emotional resonance of the art form.
Some common subtypes of poetry include sonnets, haiku, limericks, and free verse. Sonnets consist of 14 lines with a specific rhyme scheme, while haiku is a traditional form of Japanese poetry with three lines and a 5-7-5 syllable structure. Limericks are humorous poems with a specific rhyming pattern, and free verse does not follow a specific meter or rhyme scheme.

An ancient French song, or short poem, wholly in two rhymes, and composed in short lines, with a refrain.(This definition is from the 1913 Webster's Dictionary and may be outdated.)
