Limitations Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHHIIJJ GGKK| He sends me no thoughts at this time | A |
| Neither complex riddle nor sweetly rhyme | A |
| No floating clouds nor rising mists | B |
| And ne er a thought to climbing schists | B |
| How silent be the shaded bowers | C |
| That oft times sang to swaying flowers | C |
| Or braided woven curling vine | D |
| That sleeps amid the noonday shine | D |
| Gone the deserted shore with shells arrayed | E |
| Where ghosts of plovers safely wade | E |
| No winsome nymph of golden tresses | F |
| Who shyly to her beau confesses | F |
| With dewy eyes of adoration | G |
| Undying love and dedication | G |
| He knows my strength and limitations | H |
| And therefore limits my frustrations | H |
| My quill dried of ink and starved of paper | I |
| Screams attention demands a caper | I |
| But I stretched to capacity have no eye | J |
| For idle quills that sit and sigh | J |
| I owe to one full dedication | G |
| Total love and consideration | G |
| So hush my quill in patience lay | K |
| For I cannot give you time of day | K |

Poet's note: At the time of writing, I'd just lost my daughter who had terminal breast cancer and these are the words that wrote themselves down.
