The Finest Fellowship Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCBB DDEE FFGG| There may be finer pleasures than just tramping with your boy | A |
| And better ways to spend a day there may be sweeter joy | A |
| There may be richer fellowship than that of son and dad | B |
| But if there is I know it not it's one I've never had | B |
| - | |
| Oh some may choose to walk with kings and men of pomp and pride | C |
| But as for me I choose to have my youngster at my side | C |
| And some may like the rosy ways of grown up pleasures glad | B |
| But I would go a wandering with just a little lad | B |
| - | |
| Yes I would seek the woods with him and talk to him of trees | D |
| And learn to know the birds a wing and hear their melodies | D |
| And I would drop all worldly care and be a boy awhile | E |
| Then hand in hand come home at dusk to see the mother smile | E |
| - | |
| Grown men are wearisome at times and selfish pleasures jar | F |
| But sons and dads throughout the world the truest comrades are | F |
| So when I want a perfect day with every joy that's fine | G |
| I spend it in the open with that little lad o' mine | G |
