Charlie French Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHHICHJKLDid you ever find out | A |
Which one of the O'Brien boys it was | B |
Who snapped the toy pistol against my hand | C |
There when the flags were red and white | D |
In the breeze and Bucky Estil | E |
Was firing the cannon brought to Spoon River | F |
From Vicksburg by Captain Harris | G |
And the lemonade stands were running | H |
And the band was playing | H |
To have it all spoiled | I |
By a piece of a cap shot under the skin of my hand | C |
And the boys all crowding about me saying | H |
You'll die of lock jaw Charlie sure | J |
Oh dear oh dear | K |
What chum of mine could have done it | L |
