I'm afraid that I get widow lines in the lines environment.

Is there no way to avoid orphans and widows in the lines environment?
It's a bit ugly, but if the poem consists of individual stanzas, you can put each stanza in an non-bordered frame.

e.g.:
% Set up the lines environment to put the contained lines in a frame so they are kept together
\setuplines[indenting={yes,small,even},       <--  whatever options you want
   before={\startframedtext[frame=off]},
   after=\stopframedtext]

% Then wrap your stanzas in individual line environments
          \startlines
            A maiden fair was seated there,
            Her hair of fine-spun gold.
            Azure eyes so clear and bright,
            So wondrous to behold.
          \stoplines

A frame will never be split across pages.

BTW this "trick"is on the wiki on the "Verse" page.
