What are 3 examples of rhyme schemes? My assignment was to get 5 and I got only 1. Can you give me 3 more? Here's one of the poems I have:
To Anthea, Who May Command Him Any Thing
Robert Herrick
Bid me to weep, and I will weep, A
While I have eyes to see; B
And having none, and yet I will keep A
A heart to weep for three B
A and A rhymes, B and B rhymes... Get it??
If you can, please give me examples that are simple like this one.
Thanks! Bye

You're welcome.
Of course! I can provide you with three more examples of rhyme schemes that are simple like the one you have mentioned.
1. ABAB Rhyme Scheme:
In this pattern, the first and third lines rhyme, and the second and fourth lines rhyme. Here's an example:
Roses are red, A
Violets are blue; B
Sugar is sweet, A
And so are you. B
2. AABB Rhyme Scheme:
In this pattern, both the first and second lines rhyme, and the third and fourth lines rhyme. Here's an example:
I have a cat, A
His name is Matt; A
He likes to play, B
All night and day. B
3. ABBA Rhyme Scheme:
In this pattern, the first and fourth lines rhyme, and the second and third lines rhyme. Here's an example:
I went for a walk by the bay, A
To watch the dolphins play. B
The sun was shining so bright, B
It was a beautiful sight. A
Remember, when looking for rhyme schemes, it's important to focus on the end sounds of the lines. By identifying the repeated sound patterns, you can determine the rhyme scheme of a poem or a stanza. Hope this helps!
