This week we are going to work on internal rhyme in an ode to your favorite sports team, player or event.

What is internal rhyme? Uhh, it's where you rhyme internally, you know, inside the line instead of at the end...like in this Taylor Swift song.

I'm alone, on my own, and that's all I know
I'll be strong, I'll be wrong, oh but life goes on
I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in
This world

Okay, okay, so I just googled internal rhyme to find an example. I haven't heard that song either. Since this is an exercise, let's go heavy on the internal rhyme for this song.

Good luck

"Blinded by the Light" (Springsteen)

"Octopus' Garden" (Beatles)

"Like a Rolling Stone" (Dylan)
