Different Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDEE FFGGHHEE

reading what may happen never lightens any careA
I believe in facing trouble without fretting o'er the costB
But it's altogether different when your little one is lostC
Oh it's altogether different when you think she's gone astrayD
When she's toddled from the doorway and you cannot tell which wayD
When you call and get no answer and you call and call againE
You are game but still you worry for it's mighty different thenE
-
Then the sweat comes on your forehead and your nerves begin to danceF
And the only thing you think of is some dreadful circumstanceF
You never stop to reason and you play no hero's partG
For terror trembling terror is a lodger in your heartG
You could face financial ruin without parting with your grinH
You could smile to see another take the prize you hoped to winH
But you never cease to worry till you find your child againE
In the cupboard where she's hiding for it's mighty different thenE
