A Prayer To Saint Rosa Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBADBDBEFE| When I am so worn out I cannot sleep | A |
| And yet I know I have to work next day | B |
| Or lose my job I sometimes have recourse | C |
| To one long dead who listens when I pray | B |
| I ask Saint Rose of Lima for the sleep | A |
| She went without three hundred years ago | D |
| When lying on thorns and heaps of broken sherd | B |
| She talked with God and made a heaven so | D |
| Then speedily that most compassionate Saint | B |
| Comes with her gift of deep oblivious hours | E |
| Treasured for centuries in nocturnal space | F |
| And heavy with the scent of Lima's flowers | E |
