Answers

Right
Thank you, so very much!!
You're welcome.

You don't even really have to read it to know. Just look at the pattern of lines!

3 sets of 4 lines each (= 12 lines = 3 quatrains)
2 lines (couplet) set off at the end

Each of the quatrains has its own rhyme scheme.
The couplet at the end rhymes separately, too.
