With Trumpet And Drum Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCBCAADDECECAAFFCG CGAA| With big tin trumpet and little red drum | A |
| Marching like soldiers the children come | A |
| It 's this way and that way they circle and file | B |
| My but that music of theirs is fine | C |
| This way and that way and after a while | B |
| They march straight into this heart of mine | C |
| A sturdy old heart but it has to succumb | A |
| To the blare of that trumpet and beat of that drum | A |
| Come on little people from cot and from hall | D |
| This heart it hath welcome and room for you all | D |
| It will sing you its songs and warm you with love | E |
| As your dear little arms with my arms intertwine | C |
| It will rock you away to the dreamland above | E |
| Oh a jolly old heart is this old heart of mine | C |
| And jollier still is it bound to become | A |
| When you blow that big trumpet and beat that red drum | A |
| So come though I see not his dear little face | F |
| And hear not his voice in this jubilant place | F |
| I know he were happy to bid me enshrine | C |
| His memory deep in my heart with your play | G |
| Ah me but a love that is sweeter than mine | C |
| Holdeth my boy in its keeping to day | G |
| And my heart it is lonely so little folk come | A |
| March in and make merry with trumpet and drum | A |
