Coloring Book Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQREach picture is heartbreakingly banal | A |
a kitten and a ball of yarn | B |
a dog and bone | C |
The paper is cheap easily torn | D |
A coloring book's authority is derived | E |
from its heavy black lines | F |
as unalterable as the ten commandments | G |
within which minor decisions are possible | H |
the dog black and white | I |
the kitten gray | J |
Under the picture we find a few words | K |
a title perhaps a narrative | L |
a psalm or sermon | M |
But nowhere do we come upon | N |
a blank page where we might justify | O |
the careless way we scribbled | P |
when we were tired and sad | Q |
and could bear no more | R |
