Little Feet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEAAFFGGHHII DDJJKLMMNNOODDPPQQAA| There is no music quite so sweet | A |
| As patter of a baby's feet | A |
| Who never hears along the hall | B |
| The sound of tiny feet that fall | B |
| Upon the floor so soft and low | C |
| As eagerly they come or go | C |
| Has missed no matter who he be | D |
| Life's most inspiring symphony | D |
| There is a music of the spheres | E |
| Too fine to ring in mortal ears | E |
| Yet not more delicate and sweet | A |
| Than pattering of baby feet | A |
| Where'er I hear that pit a pat | F |
| Which falls upon the velvet mat | F |
| Out of my dreamy nap I start | G |
| And hear the echo in my heart | G |
| 'Tis difficult to put in words | H |
| The music of the summer birds | H |
| Yet far more difficult a thing | I |
| A lyric for that pattering | I |
| Here is a music telling me | D |
| Of golden joys that are to be | D |
| Unheralded by horns and drums | J |
| To me a regal caller comes | J |
| Now on my couch I lie and hear | K |
| A little toddler coming near | L |
| Coming right boldly to my place | M |
| To pull my hair and pat my face | M |
| Undaunted by my age or size | N |
| Nor caring that I am not wise | N |
| A visitor devoid of sham | O |
| Who loves me just for what I am | O |
| This soft low music tells to me | D |
| In just a minute I shall be | D |
| Made captive by a thousand charms | P |
| Held fast by chubby little arms | P |
| For there is one upon the way | Q |
| Who thinks the world was made for play | Q |
| Oh where's the sound that's half so sweet | A |
| As pattering of baby feet | A |
