Whenever a character says something and ends up unintentionally pulling off a rhyme, only to point that out afterwards, this trope is invoked. Often Lampshaded with the Stock Phrase "[I'm/You're] a poet and don't know it!"
Can result in Rhymes on a Dime. See also Rhyme Tropes for more rhyme-related tropes.
