Child Of The Romans Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCCBBBDECCC

The dago shovelman sits by the railroad trackA
Eating a noon meal of bread and bolognaB
A train whirls by and men and women at tablesC
Alive with red roses and yellow jonquilsC
Eat steaks running with brown gravyB
Strawberries and cream eclaires and coffeeB
The dago shovelman finishes the dry bread and bolognaB
Washes it down with a dipper from the water boyD
And goes back to the second half of a ten hour day's workE
Keeping the road bed so the roses and jonquilsC
Shake hardly at all in the cut glass vasesC
Standing slender on the tables in the dining carsC
