Ask Me Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFG HIJKHLH

Some time when the river is ice ask meA
mistakes I have made Ask me whetherB
what I have done is my life OthersC
have come in their slow way intoD
my thought and some have tried to helpE
or to hurt ask me what differenceF
their strongest love or hate has madeG
-
I will listen to what you sayH
You and I can turn and lookI
at the silent river and wait We knowJ
the current is there hidden and thereK
are comings and goings from miles awayH
that hold the stillness exactly before usL
What the river says that is what I sayH
