Scrub Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEFFGGHIJK

If I grow bitterlyA
Like a gnarled and stunted treeA
Bearing harshly of my youthB
Puckered fruit that sears the mouthC
If I make of my drawn boughsD
An Inshospitable HouseE
Out of which I nevery pryF
Towards the water and the skyF
Under which I stand and hideG
And hear the day go by outsideG
It is that a wind to strongH
Bent my back when I was youngI
It is that I fear the rainJ
Lest it blister me againK
