I Should O' Known (all Along) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHGH IJIJKLKL| Were I wise I should o' known | A |
| To steer a leery course | B |
| And felt the tumult wind had blown | A |
| Its tempest of remorse | B |
| But I was given to the sound | C |
| That echoed through my head | D |
| And tumbled in there round and round | C |
| The first sweet words she'd said | D |
| - | |
| She told me all the world was ours | E |
| Until our days may end | F |
| Boundless love that never sours | E |
| Nor can the years amend | F |
| She said she ever would be true | G |
| And by my side she'd stay | H |
| But now her words are scant and few | G |
| My love has went away | H |
| - | |
| So as I drift into the night | I |
| And darkness takes its place | J |
| My hindsight wishes that I might | I |
| Have pondered just in case | J |
| I should o' known oh were I wise | K |
| With sense that could not see | L |
| Wisdom visits in disguise | K |
| But seldom visits me | L |
