Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the theory and praxis of rhyme from a poetic aspect of A. B. Šimić. The expressiveness as a basic principle of his poetics is being subversive to all prior and etablished poetic elements. The effects produced with rhyme are interpreted and standardized on the basis of declarative statements. Having in mind the fact that rhyme has mostly been mentioned obiter through the analysis of Šimić’s work/poetics, we think this analytical consideration of the problem would fulfill the void and offer some relevant conclusions. It is evident that the rhyme represents an infrequent, but vigorous phonic element of Šimić’s verse. This is not only a phenomenon on a phonic level, whereas it includes the question of its syntactic and semantic relations. In consonance with other song elements, the rhyme participates in expressing the author’s worldview/opinion.
