Ghazal
A poetic form consisting of couplets that share a rhyme and a refrain. The couplets have lines of 10 syllables (Including the refrain). The refrain can be a word or a phrase. There is internal rhyming in lines 1 and 2 and line 2 of each couplet with the refrain. Each couplet should be able to stand alone. There is no limit to the number of couplets in a Ghazal. However, a min. of five stanzas is required.

Vying for the love in a mother's kiss; siblings compete to win a mother's kiss. Nothing alleviates boo-boos better; for trust is found within a mother's kiss. A treasure greater than any other; whereas love lies therein, a mother's kiss. A loving gift given to all ages; oft greeted with a grin, a mother's kiss. It is such an incredible feeling; it is like no other, a mother's kiss.
