Is that the question ... i was reading the poems i had written earlier ... was trying to see how far i have come in mastering the arts .. i discovered i have been using only one kind of rhymes only (other than non rhymingg of course) ... i reasearched (google of course) and found that there a lot more rhyming schemes that are there .. few of them which can be used easily are
End Rhymes
I am a big fan of these. Wroks very well in romantic piece of writing. Here are few examples from my poems
Wondering in the spell i am under
whether you will accept my sweet surrender
Left with no choice
Last night darling i missed your voice
End rhymes can also be in alternating lines ... like following just written
love was what i was trying to find
i closed my eyes
it was you who came to my mind
i loooked towards the heaven
and asked why you have become so kind
Internal rhymes
In this rhymes exist in one line
i am alone, darling please come home
If you remember Rhyme of ancient mariner (Coleridge) he has used commbination of internal and end rhymes so beautifully
the fair breeze blew, the white foam flew
the furrow followed free
we were the first that ever burst
into the silent sea
Partial Rhymes
These are when words do not rhyme perfectly
like
breadth/bread
carft/mast
love/prove (this is what i call paper rhyme, looks good on paper but is not rhyme actually)
But the thing is that i dont think so much when i write a poem .. so i dont know whether i am going to use it or not :)
