Apologies Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAABC DDDEFC DDGHGC IIIAHIIJC KALMM N OPQRRHSASS TTTUV CThis is a formal apology | A |
from this brand new prodigy | A |
Please understand this apology | A |
as the word prodigy might not mean what you think | B |
so my apologies | C |
- | |
The meaning i am trying to feature | D |
is that it is out of the ordinary course of nature | D |
and therefore not a boasting picture | D |
But rather a picture of the power of Christ | E |
To change my life | F |
So my apologies | C |
- | |
This is actually a serious matter | D |
and I am not just trying to blabber | D |
words without meaning | G |
or rhyme without reason | H |
or words that would just be pleasing | G |
So my apologies | C |
- | |
This is for people in my past | I |
all i am asking is to hold fast | I |
and listen to me cast | I |
what seems like a feeble apology | A |
for the things I have said and done | H |
For some this is at last | I |
For others the pain might still last | I |
and for that | J |
I give my most sincere apologies | C |
- | |
The only thing I have to show for this | K |
is actually the condolences for the death of a man called ME | A |
He died a sinner and not a saint | L |
therefore I'm asking you not to hate | M |
but to rather congratulate | M |
- | |
Congratulate You might ask | N |
- | |
Yes because that sinner came to a cross | O |
where he was shown who was actually boss | P |
and died there on the spot | Q |
But then the miraculous | R |
It was completely fabulous | R |
A spiritual resurrection | H |
and perfection injected | S |
to a dirty old rag like me | A |
As perfection was injected | S |
a brand new prodigy manifested | S |
- | |
Here i am thinking of the pain I had caused | T |
The heartache that I caused | T |
The stress that I have caused | T |
And for this all I can only offer words | U |
The words that come from the bottom of my heart | V |
- | |
My most sincere apologies | C |
