What is a rhyming triplet?

A rhyming triplet is a three-line stanza where all three lines rhyme with each other.

Here's an example:

> The cat sat on the mat,

> A furry friend, quite fat,

> He purred and licked his paw, that's that.

Notice how all three lines end with "mat", "fat" and "that", making them rhyme.

Rhyming triplets are often used in:

* Children's poetry because they're easy to remember and read aloud.

* Limericks, where the first, second, and fifth lines rhyme.

* Longer poems, as part of a larger structure.

While the rhyme scheme is simple, it can be used to create a variety of effects, from playful to serious.
