  Guide to Verse Forms - Rhyme
Another form of internal rhyme has a word in the middle of one line rhyming with the the word at the end of a different line; this is sometimes called cross rhyme - which is liable to be confused with cross-rhyme, a particular kind of 4-line stanza.
One particular form of cross rhyme, in which the word at the end of one line rhymes with a line in the middle of the next, is common in Irish poetry, where it is known as aicill rhyme.
Rhyming a word in the middle of one line with a word in the middle of another is called interlaced rhyme.

 Eye rhyme - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eye rhyme is a similarity in spelling between words that are pronounced differently and hence, not an auditory rhyme.
Many older English poems, particularly those written in Middle English or written in The Renaissance, contain rhymes that were originally true or full rhymes, but as read by modern readers they are now eye rhymes because of shifts in pronunciation.

 eye rhyme --  Encyclopædia Britannica
in poetry, an imperfect rhyme in which two words are spelled similarly but pronounced differently (such as move and love, bough and though, come and home, and laughter and daughter).
Rhyme is used by poets and occasionally by prose writers to produce sounds appealing to the reader's senses and to unify and establish a poem's stanzaic form.
End rhyme (i.e., rhyme used at the end of a line to echo the end of another line) is most common, but...

 Rhyme Scheme
One case to notice is in the second stanza, where "peonies" [pronounced "pee-oh-neez"] is used to rhyme with "eyes." This is an instance of what is called slant rhyme (sometimes also called eye rhyme), where the two words do not rhyme perfectly (usually the discrepancy is in the vowel sound).
Internal rhyme happens when two words in a poem rhyme, but at least one is not located at the end of a line.
Rhyme schemes, especially ones that repeat (as this one does), are often written in the following form: a b a b c d e c d e.

Rhyme is the matching of sounds in two or more words, beginning with the stressed vowels and including all subsequent sounds in the words.
Eye rhyme is occasionally used by British poets, while American poets tend to avoid it.
Internal rhyme is not marked in a rhyme scheme, and the mere sequence of letters doesn’t distinguish between true rhyme and slant rhyme or between masculine and feminine rhymes.

 Kalliope Workshop: Rhyme Time
Variations in rhyme are differences in the types of sound, and in the pattern, or position.
Words rhyme if the last stressed vowel and the sounds that follow it match (as in "afar" and "bizarre," "biology" and "ideology," or "computer" and "commuter").
Internal rhyme may be varied by rhyming the first or last word of a line with a word inside the next line.

Eye rhyme is the very axis along which the relationship of the aural to the visual in poetry can be measured, but its identification is always a matter of privileging one over the other.
Genuine cases of eye rhyme raise the issue of the relations of sound to spelling in language and poetry – notice, for example, that spelling differences in aural rhyme are invisible, whereas spelling similarities in eye rhyme are opaque; they are the marked form.
Rhyme is by definition sound-correspondence, but insofar as spelling is meant to denote sound, we must both ignore it and – when necessary – pay attention to it … In this, eye rhyme points up the very question of the aural and (or versus) the visual modes of poetry.

 Glossary of Rhymes
It may be tempting, simply because the terms are listed here, to get overly scrupulous about fine distinctions between, for example, "identical" and "rich" rhyme, or "broken" as opposed to "linked" rhyme--but these are distinctions that rarely find practical sanction in critical usage and are often much more useful for the writer.

 Ear-Rhyme, Eye-Rhyme and Traditional Rhyme: English and Scots in Robert Burns’ s Brigs of Ayr
However, during the course of the Early Modern English period, and especially in the century after Bysshe wrote, alternative rhyming practices, where a markedly divergent pronunciation is accepted, can be detected in contemporary poetry: the eye-rhyme, and the traditional rhyme.
Traditional rhymes are those such as (in Present-Day English Received Pronunciation) sea: way, where the codas of the two words were once pronounced the same but have since diverged; eye-rhymes, a sub-category of traditional rhymes, are pairs of words in which the codas are pronounced differently but are spelt in the same way, e.g.
The appearance of traditional rhymes and eye-rhymes depends, of course, on the existence of a particular kind of poetic reception, in which the encounter with poetry is made primarily through reading rather than through listening.

Rhyme — The study of traditional English poetry takes spoken and written words and breaks them further into "phonemes," which are the units in a linguistic system originally created to represent sound.
In ASL a line is also a predictable pattern of signs that may include specific rhyming of handshapes, movements, palm orientations, and nonmanual expressions and that is sometimes conveyed in a patterned rhythm of movements and holds.
Eye gaze is a powerful way to make contact with the audience, or bring attention to different elements of signs by the gaze following the hands or focusing on a particular space location.
