The Mother Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACBA DEDFGGBeneath the eaves there is another chair | A |
And a bruised lily lies upon the walk | B |
With the bright drops still clinging to its stalk | B |
Whose careless hand has dropped its treasure there | A |
And whose small form does that frail settee bear | A |
Whose are that wooden shepherdess and flock | C |
That noble coach with steeds that never balk | B |
And why the gate that tops the cottage stair | A |
- | |
Ah he has now a rival for her love | D |
A chubby cheeked soft fisted Don Juan | E |
Who rules with iron hand in velvet glove | D |
Mother and sire as only Baby can | F |
See there they romp the mother and her boy | G |
He on her shoulders perched and wild with joy | G |
