A Scrawl Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAA CDCD EFEF

I want to sing something but this is allA
I try and I try but the rhymes are dullB
As though they were damp and the echoes fallA
Limp and unlovableA
-
Words will not say what I yearn to sayC
They will not walk as I want them toD
But they stumble and fall in the path of the wayC
Of my telling my love for youD
-
Simply take what the scrawl is worthE
Knowing I love you as sun the sodF
On the ripening side of the great round earthE
That swings in the smile of GodF
