Magazine Girl Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCCB DBDBEEEB CBCBFFFB| ALL women are lovely and radiantly fair | A |
| In the magazine pages today | B |
| They all have a mop of luxuriant hair | A |
| In the magazine pages today | B |
| There's not one with freckles or nose gone askew | C |
| Or teeth that protrude as some real girls' do | C |
| There isn't a blemish on girls that we view | C |
| In the magazine pages today | B |
| - | |
| There's not one too pudgy or not one too thin | D |
| In the magazine pages today | B |
| Nor one who's just losing her tortoise shell pin | D |
| In the magazine pages today | B |
| 'Twixt shirtwaist and belt there is never a gap | E |
| Or a tear in the silk that is lining her wrap | E |
| And her gloves never lack a pearl button or snap | E |
| In the magazine pages today | B |
| - | |
| She doesn't wear pink when she ought to wear blue | C |
| In the magazine pages today | B |
| And she isn't run down at the heel of her shoe | C |
| In the magazine pages today | B |
| You never can see when she hasn't a hat | F |
| How much is real hair and how much of it's rat | F |
| It's only in real life that we see things like that | F |
| Not in magazine pages today | B |
