What is an ABCB rhyme scheme?

Answer 1

The letters stand for the ends of the lines. This pattern describes a four-line verse with ending rhymes as follows:

A

B

C

B

This means that the second and fourth lines rhyme but the other two don't. This nursery rhyme is an example of an ABCB scheme:

Mary had a little lamb,

Its fleece was white as snow,

And everywhere that Mary went

The lamb was sure to go.

A - lamb

B - snow

C - went

B - go

ABCB Rhyme Scheme is also called "Simple 4-Line"

Answer 2

It is known as a 'sandwich' rhyme scheme. Best understood like this:

I knew a girl named Jennifer,

She had so many cats

That she never worried about rats,

But good golly to hear all that purr!

See how the rhyming goes A/B/B/A as the lines go? That is all there is to it.

Answer 3

This depends on the context of the poem or song involved. It is meant to be simple, so it could be the poet trying to imply that his/her feelings are pure, such as in Goodbye Again, Cambridge by Xu Zhimo. Sometimes when it is coupled with terse ends and monosyllabic words, it could be to create an atmosphere of orderly discomfort, such as seeing the goose-step march of a platoon. Than again, it could be the work of inexperienced poet wannabes who haven't got a better rhyme scheme.

Answer 4

An ABC rhyme scheme is where if there was three stanzas in the poem, the first line in each of them would have the same sounding ending, the second line in each of the stanzas would have the same sounding ending, and the last line in each stanza would, again have the same sounding ending.

Answer 5

It would go like this:

I love apples(A)

You can make them into jam(B)

or maybe not(C)

but even apple jam wouldn't be as good as ham.(B)

Ok, so that was a rubbish poem, but you can get the rhyme scheme from it. The last word on the first line represents A, and the last word on the third line represents C. A and C don't rhyme, because they are different letters. The last word on the second line represents B, and so does the last word on the fourth line, because they rhyme.

So, basically, In an ABCB rhyming poem The first and third lines won't rhyme, but the second and fourth will.

Hope that answers your question. :)
