A rhyme scheme is the pattern of the rhymes at the end of each line of a poem. Letters are often used to describe the rhyme scheme. If a quatrain, or a group of four lines of poetry, has four rhyming lines, then the rhyme scheme would be . If every other line of the quatrain rhymes, then the rhyme scheme would be ABAB. Every time a new rhyme is introduced, a new letter is added to the rhyme scheme. For example, a quatrain where the second and fourth lines rhyme, but the first and third lines don’t, would have a rhyme scheme of ABCB.
