Tom Merritt Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEFGHAIJK| At first I suspected something | A |
| She acted so calm and absent minded | B |
| And one day I heard the back door shut | C |
| As I entered the front and I saw him slink | A |
| Back of the smokehouse into the lot | D |
| And run across the field | E |
| And I meant to kill him on sight | F |
| But that day walking near Fourth Bridge | G |
| Without a stick or a stone at hand | H |
| All of a sudden I saw him standing | A |
| Scared to death holding his rabbits | I |
| And all I could say was Don't Don't Don't | J |
| As he aimed and fired at my heart | K |
