Research on Rhymes.

Definition of Rhymes
Rhymes are types of poems which have the the repetition of the same or similar sounds at the end of two or more words most often at the ends of lines. This technique makes the poem easy to remember and is therefore often used in Nursery Rhymes. There are several derivatives of the term rhyme which include Double rhyme, Triple rhyme, Rising rhyme, Falling rhyme, Perfect and Imperfect rhymes.

Example:
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the King's horses, And all the King's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again!

Storybook Script

Long ago, in 1940, Japan invaded Korea,
They made Korea a Japan Empire.
Japan was cruel,
Koreans had to obey the rulers.
Koreans had to change thier names,
And they had no where to push the blames.
A notice was posted,
"If you go aganst the command,you will be arrested."
In the end Sun-Hee's name became Keoko,
Tae-yul became Nobuo.

One day,Sun-Hee and Tae-yul is being called,
where Uncle had a flag and taught
the meaning and drawing of it
"Never forget."
"Keep it in your mind always",
"What the flag looks like and means."
Uncle said.

When the time comes,
Korea will be free,
Becoming its own country.
Uncle told Sun-Hee and Tae-yul,
"You,"
"have to capture,"
"this picture,"
"in your mind,"
"before the Japanese can find."
Uncle hoped,
that one day,
Korean flag,
would be able to fly with pride.
