The rispetto lyric is generally composed of eight hendecasyllabic (11-syllable) lines. The rhyme scheme was usually abababcc , but ababccdd is now more prominent.
An Angel sent by God best describes my mum;
a more loving soul has never walked this Earth.
Mum would bottle preserves: apple, peach, or plum;
cultivate my pride, and shore up my self-worth.
And she could knit, crochet, macramé, and sew,
learning each without help; she took life in tow.
I felt comfortable and safe around her;
now, when I think of her, my tears start to stir.
