Couplets are two lines of poetry together, often rhyming, and usually of the same length. Why might poets be drawn to writing poems using couplets? What happens when two lines of poetry pair together? What is the difference between open and closed couplets? How has the use of couplets changed over time? This workshop will allow us to explore a series of poems in couplets, experimenting with our own pairings as we write new poetry.

Latecomer
If a course has already started, please call the office as it may be possible to join after the start date. This may only be possible if the course is not already full, if it is not disruptive for the other students and you are aware that you have missed a percentage of the course and the tutor will not have time to catch you up. This will be at discretion of the Folk House. We run our courses termly, so it might be best to start at the beginning of the course.
