The Bunkhouse Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIHJJCJ KLCLMJJJ| The bunkhouse on the cattle ranch | A |
| Was lowly but at night | B |
| When its small window was aglow | C |
| We hurried in that light | B |
| And merrily we trooped within | D |
| And flung our saddles down | E |
| And there were tales for all to hear | F |
| Told by the plainsmen brown | E |
| - | |
| The bunkhouse walls were papered o'er | G |
| With scraps from everywhere | H |
| With pictures of great battleships | I |
| And ladies who were fair | H |
| And all could read strange bits of news | J |
| While many comrades' scrawls | J |
| Were written there illegibly | C |
| Upon the bunkhouse walls | J |
| - | |
| I've traveled many miles since then | K |
| But oft when sets the sun | L |
| I think about the bunkhouse low | C |
| Where cowboys one by one | L |
| Came strolling in to chat and smoke | M |
| And play a game of cards | J |
| I'd even stand for their long snores | J |
| Where are you good old pards | J |
