What Uncle Rob Says Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABB CC D C E BBA

Uncle Rob saysA
That once on a time the fire fliesB
Were stars with the others up in the skiesB
-
They used to shimmer and dance and playC
Night after night in the Milky WayC
-
But when their papa the stern old SunD
Said 'off to bed with you every one '-
-
These bold little stars refused to obeyC
'Let's hide in that cloud and then run away '-
-
'Let's run to the earth ' these bad stars saidE
'We are quite too old to be sent to bed '-
-
So then they were exiled out of the skiesB
And that's how we came with the fire fliesB
So Uncle Rob saysA
