Rhyme Scheme: A BCDE FGHIG JKLK MNOP

A
-
I was the slightest in the HouseB
I took the smallest RoomC
At night my little Lamp and BookD
And one GeraniumE
-
So stationed I could catch the MintF
That never ceased to fallG
And just my BasketH
Let me think I'm sureI
That this was allG
-
I never spoke unless addressedJ
And then 'twas brief and lowK
I could not bear to live aloudL
The Racket shamed me soK
-
And if it had not been so farM
And any one I knewN
Were going I had often thoughtO
How noteless I could dieP
