Perfect Rhyme - The final stressed syllables of the words sound exactly the same.
Slant Rhyme - The vowel sounds are similar, but the consonants may differ, or vice versa.
Eye Rhyme- Words look like they should rhyme based on spelling, but do not rhyme when spoken.
Internal Rhyme - Rhyming words appear within a single line of poetry.
End Rhyme - Rhyming words occur at the end of lines.
