I'll work on it this afternoon.the technical term for them is "sight rhyme". They were used as true rhymes back in the 16th and 17th century because they used to be true rhymes. Alas, as pronunciations have evolved, love now rhymes with shove and prove with move.
Also, you guys wouldn't say that, for example, "move" and "love" rhyme, even though they have the same ending??
