The Beauty Places Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDEFF GHGHII JBJBKKHere she walked and romped about | A |
And here beneath this apple tree | B |
Where all the grass is trampled out | A |
The swing she loved so used to be | B |
This path is but a path to you | C |
Because my child you never knew | C |
- | |
'Twas here she used to stoop to smell | D |
The first bright daffodil of spring | E |
'Twas here she often tripped and fell | D |
And here she heard the robins sing | E |
You'd call this but a common place | F |
But you have never seen her face | F |
- | |
And it was here we used to meet | G |
How beautiful a spot is this | H |
To which she gayly raced to greet | G |
Her daddy with his evening kiss | H |
You see here nothing grand or fine | I |
But Oh what memories are mine | I |
- | |
The people pass from day to day | J |
And never turn their heads to see | B |
The many charms along the way | J |
That mean so very much to me | B |
For all things here are speaking of | K |
The babe that once was mine to love | K |
