When The Coal House's Full. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCBB DDBB EEBB| When the nights are gittin' chilly and the leaves begin to fade | A |
| An' the mercury's down to thirty 'stead o' ninety in the shade | A |
| There's a happy kind o' feelin' takes possession o' the soul | B |
| With the smoke house full o' middlin' and the coal house full o' coal | B |
| - | |
| When the wintry winds are whistlin' through the branches o' the trees | C |
| An' the dead leaves are a flyin' and a rustlin' in the breeze | C |
| You kin feel the vast contentment that over you will roll | B |
| If the barn is full o' fodder and the coal house full o' coal | B |
| - | |
| When the 'skeeter's ceased from troublin' and the fly is chilled to death | D |
| An' the window pane is written with the Frost King's icy breath | D |
| You kin dream about the Summer time an' that old fishin' pole | B |
| If the pantry's full o' victuals an' the coal house full o' coal | B |
| - | |
| When your supper's been digested an' you're dozin' in your chair | E |
| Or you're tucked between the blankets from the frosty nippin' air | E |
| Why your dreams will be the sweeter if you've helped some sufferin' soul | B |
| Whose larder's scant o' victuals and his coal house minus coal | B |
