Mama told me

When I was young
Simple words are
The truest of all

She taught me
To aim high and rise
With every fall, and I
Crawled back up
Even from the ground

Mama told me
When I was young
That one just needs to see
For the light to be

She pointed to
A distant star
Or a streetlight
Always showing the way

Mama told me
We are never alone
And she's with me
Everywhere I go

Every pair of lines in the poem rhymes.
C.
The even lines in each stanza rhyme.
D.
There is no rhyme scheme in this poem.

1 answer

The correct answer is D. There is no rhyme scheme in this poem.

While some lines might have a slight rhythmic or sound similarity, the poem does not consistently follow a rhyme scheme throughout. Each stanza does not have a matching rhyme pattern for every line, and there is no discernible rhyme scheme that applies uniformly across the stanzas.
