Child Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIA| The young child Christ is straight and wise | A |
| And asks questions of the old men questions | B |
| Found under running water for all children | C |
| And found under shadows thrown on still waters | D |
| By tall trees looking downward old and gnarled | E |
| Found to the eyes of children alone untold | F |
| Singing a low song in the loneliness | G |
| And the young child Christ goes on asking | H |
| And the old men answer nothing and only know love | I |
| For the young child Christ straight and wise | A |
