For one example, Edward MacDowell's "New England Idylls" include a poem with each piece.  It appears the composer himself wrote the poems.

The poems rhyme.  However, they don't have much to do with the pieces except to set a mood or something.

I must agree with abell88.  Your question appears to lack the full measure of clarity.
