Definition: A poem or verse having a regular appropiate of sounds, especially at the ends of lines. To use (a word) or (of a word) to be used so as to form a rhyme; be or make identical in sound.)
Example:
Mary Mary quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells and cockle shells
With silver bells and cockle shells
And pretty maids all in a row.
Significance: It makes the poem more interesting to read. When the poem rhymes, they create the rhythm in order to catch the readers ear
more. If a poem doesn't have any rhyme, we can't call it poem.
Actually a poem doesn't have to rhyme. It makes it pleasant to hear, but it isn't required. Free verse poems often have no rhyming.
