    It is called Rhyme Scheme (type: enclose rhyme).

    Rhyme is the repetition of sounds in a word used for example at the end of lines of poetry, within a word, in songs, etc.

    So as a consequence, Rhyme Scheme is the pattern of rhymes, for example at the end of a poem. They are representing by using letters of the alphabet so that each rhyme in a poem that rhyme with other has assigned a letter (starting with the letter 'A').

    Enclose rhyme or enclosing rhyme is the rhyme scheme ABBA. For example:

    "Love had us mesmerized under its magic spell A

    Our youth's enchanted vision of what life would be B

    Innocent intentions that let our lives feel free B

    Enraptured in each other's arms as twilight fell." A
