Your rule set does not contain any rules which let packets pass *in* on
your internal interface. 

Remember, pf.conf is seen from the firewall's perspective. traffic
passes IN from elsewhere on either interface to the firewall, OUT to
elsewhere on either interface. You have rules which let traffic pass
in to the firewall on the external interface and out from the firewall
on the external interface, but none which let traffic in on the internal
interface.
