Question

question 6 of 10
read this poem:

roses are red,
violets are blue,
dodoes are dead,
and thats a shame.

what is the poems rhyme scheme?

a. abcd
b. abac
c. abba
d. abab

Explanation:

To determine the rhyme scheme, we assign a letter to each line based on its end - word rhyme.

• Line 1: "red" → assign "a".
• Line 2: "blue" → since it doesn't rhyme with "red", assign "b".
• Line 3: "dead" → it doesn't rhyme with "red" (a) or "blue" (b), assign "c".
• Line 4: "shame" → it doesn't rhyme with "red" (a), "blue" (b), or "dead" (c), assign "d".

So the rhyme scheme is abcd.

Answer:

A. abcd
