writing poems? any other forms?

[Semidevil]

I've recently had this interest in writing poems...now the only form of poem that I know, are the ones where every 2 lines rhyme.....

are there any other forms in poem writing? I want to go a bit deeper then just rhymes.....

Haiku, Tanka, whole crap load of stuff I learned in school.
As for rhyming, you can have internal rhymes, rhyming couplets, and different rhyming schemes.

That's all that comes to mind right now, hope it helps
