Answer: A, B, A, A, B

A rhyme scheme is the pattern of rhymes of a poem or a song. In order to discover the rhyme scheme of a poem, we have to look at the way each line ends. Rhyme schemes are usually indicated by using letters. The lines that rhyme with each other receive the same letter. However, not all poems need to have a rhyme scheme.
