Waiting Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCD EFEFGG HIHIJ KGKGLL| Oh how I love the fine old chap | A |
| Who sits upon my left at meals | B |
| And drops his cabbage in my lap | A |
| From swooping fork while he reveals | B |
| How he at Hay in ' | C |
| Gave Hamlet's grand so lil o quee | D |
| - | |
| He slops his supper beer o' nights | E |
| Or fills my dexter ear with stout | F |
| While strenuously he recites | E |
| And hurls his lanky limbs about | F |
| To prove that every modern cuss | G |
| Has missed the true Polonius | G |
| - | |
| His oysters down my back he'll throw | H |
| Or freely spray me with his soup | I |
| When suddenly inspired to show | H |
| How savage Ingomar should whoop | I |
| Or illustrate the proper scream | J |
| With which to finish 'Denver's Dream ' | - |
| - | |
| He throws his turnips everywhere | K |
| With breakfast tea he scalds my legs | G |
| I've spuds and carrots in my hair | K |
| And oft he's smitten me with eggs | G |
| If e'er he shows with humor grim | L |
| I'll throw these things all back at him | L |
