Poetry Sounds

At first, I thought rhyme was something that rhymes, but I learned that rhyme is something that rhymes and I was right.

An example of a poem with end rhyme is below. The title is Gamekeepers Dance to the Strokes of Syllablesn ,and the author is Jackson Mac Low. The rhyme scheme is unknown.

On my poetry pretest, I was below grade-level. On my posttest, I hope that I will be at grade-level.
