If you will reach full retirement age in 2016, you may earn up to $3,490 per month without losing any of your benefits, up until the month you turn 66. But for every $3 you earn over that amount in any month, you will lose $1 in Social Security benefits.
Poetry can follow a strict structure, or none at all, but many different types of poems use poetic devices. Poetic devices are tools that a poet can use to create rhythm, enhance a poem's meaning, or intensify a mood or feeling. These devices help piece the poem together, much like a hammer and nails join planks of wood together.
The couplet is a popular poetic device. A couplet contains two lines of verse that usually rhyme, though this isn't required. The lines can be any length and use any rhythm. Sometimes the two lines are the same length, and sometimes one is longer than the other. Couplets are often used to end a stanza, but they can also constitute the whole poem.
