rhymed prose

Rhymed prose is a form of writing that combines the natural flow of spoken language with the added element of rhyme, creating a musical or poetic effect. Unlike traditional poetry, it often resembles regular speech but incorporates end rhymes or internal rhymes to enhance rhythm and memorability. This style is used to make storytelling more engaging, drawing attention to key ideas or themes while maintaining the ease of prose. Examples can be found in classical Chinese literature and certain poetic passages across cultures, where the blend of prose structure and rhyme enriches the reading experience.
