The Things Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDAEFGHIJKL| When I walk in my house I see pictures | A |
| bought long ago framed and hanging | B |
| de Kooning Arp Laurencin Henry Moore | C |
| that I've cherished and stared at for years | D |
| yet my eyes keep returning to the masters | A |
| of the trivial a white stone perfectly round | E |
| tiny lead models of baseball players a cowbell | F |
| a broken great grandmother's rocker | G |
| a dead dog's toy valueless unforgettable | H |
| detritus that my children will throw away | I |
| as I did my mother's souvenirs of trips | J |
| with my dead father Kodaks of kittens | K |
| and bundles of cards from her mother Kate | L |
