Jes' Wonderin'! Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCD AAEECD FFGGHH

I WONDER if they're bitin' way off yonder in the bayA
I wonder if they're fightin' very hard t' git awayA
I wonder if they're hungry an' would grab a silver spoonB
Th' way that I remember they used t' do in JuneB
I wonder if Ole Daddy's caught his big one yet this yearC
An' I guess the boss is wonderin' why I'm sittin' idle hereD
-
I wonder if the lily pads are just as thick t'dayA
As what they were in by gone times when I was on the bayA
I wonder if my favorite spot right now is occupiedE
By some one else an' if it's come t' be a stranger's prideE
An' if he knows its secrets too an' holds 'em just as dearC
An' if the boss is wonderin' why I'm sittin' wonderin' hereD
-
I wonder if the gulls fly 'round the way they used t' doF
T' grab the minnows now an' then that in the bay I threwF
I wonder if I still could cast as true as what I didG
When I could land it every time where some big one was hidG
An' O I wonder if the day will ever come againH
When I shall hear a singing reel the way I heard it thenH
