it is like rhyming the same pattern over again by LaVarious McClain
External rhyme in poetry refers to the rhyming of words at the end of consecutive lines. It is a common poetic device that can create a pleasing sound pattern and enhance the overall rhythm of the poem.
A rhyme is a repetition of similar sounds in two or more words
=Composed of three quatrains and a terminal couplet in iambic pentameter with the rhyme pattern==Ex: abab, cdcd efefgg=
There is not normally a rhyming pattern in an acrostic pattern. You can make it rhyme ABABABA for example.
The rhyme pattern for "Ah Sunflower" by William Blake is AABBCC.

There are actually quite a number of different rhyme types accepted in the literary community. Some, such as the "Assonant rhyme", which is defined as having the same vowel sounds but varying consistent sounds, yes, they do rhyme. However, if you go with the most common definition of a rhyme, that is, what the literary community would call a "Perfect Rhyme", you are limited to words that begin with different sounds, but end with the same sounds. By this layman definition, song would rhyme with gong, but not with gone, and gone would rhyme with dawn.

Poems do not have to rhyme..but they do generally follow a pattern of word formation.
The rhyme pattern of "The Times They Are a-Changin'" by Bob Dylan is AABBCC. This means that the first and second lines rhyme, as do the third and fourth lines, and the fifth and sixth lines.
The pattern of similar end-sounds in a poem is known as rhyme scheme. Rhyme scheme is a way to describe the pattern of rhyming words at the end of each line in a poem. Common rhyme schemes are represented by letters (e.g., AABB, ABAB) to show which lines rhyme with each other.
Technically no--for one of two reasons: 1) to "rhyme," two words must have the same "rhyme sound," preceded by a different "consonantal sound" and 2) the accent must be on the same syllable. (Note: the different preceding consonantal sound in the two words are "t" in "ten" and "c" in "-cent.") The rhyme sound in "ten" is "-en" and in "per-cent" is "-ent." "-en and "-ent" clearly are different rhyme sounds because of the "t" in "-ent." In pronouncing "percent," the accented syllable is arguably the second syllable "-cent" and thus that part of the definition of a rhyme is met, but the rhyme still fails because of the first part of the definition of a rhyme.
