In traditional poetry, a regular rhyme aids the memory for recitation and gives predictable pleasure. A pattern of rhyme, called a scheme, also helps establish the form. ... In modern free verse, rhyme breaks the pattern and adds unpredictable spice, giving special emphasis to the lines that rhyme.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example. If you rhyme with words like,nice and mice. You will probably have a sweet, pleasant theme

(Stupid example but ok.)
