The Triantiwontigongolope Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCAADC EEFFCAADC GGHHCAADC IIJKCAADCThere's a very funny insect that you do not often spy | A |
And it isn't quite a spider and it isn't quite a fly | A |
It is something like a beetle and a little like a bee | B |
But nothing like a wooly grub that climbs upon a tree | B |
Its name is quite a hard one but you'll learn it soon I hope | C |
So try | A |
Tri | A |
Tri anti wonti | D |
Triantiwontigongolope | C |
- | |
It lives on weeds and wattle gum and has a funny face | E |
Its appetite is hearty and its manners a disgrace | E |
When first you come upon it it will give you quite a scare | F |
But when you look for it again you find it isn't there | F |
And unless you call it softly it will stay away and mope | C |
So try | A |
Tri | A |
Tri anti wonti | D |
Triantiwontigongolope | C |
- | |
It trembles if you tickle it or tread upon its toes | G |
It is not an early riser but it has a snubbish nose | G |
If you snear at it or scold it it will scuttle off in shame | H |
But it purrs and purrs quite proudly if you call it by its name | H |
And offer it some sandwiches of sealing wax and soap | C |
So try | A |
Tri | A |
Tri anti wonti | D |
Triantiwontigongolope | C |
- | |
But of course you haven't seen it and I truthfully confess | I |
That I haven't seen it either and I don't know its address | I |
For there isn't such an insect though there really might have been | J |
If the trees and grass were purple and the sky was bottle green | K |
It's just a little joke of mine which you'll forgive I hope | C |
Oh try | A |
Tri | A |
Tri anti wonti | D |
Triantiwontigongolope | C |
