Revenge Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABAB CCDED FFBFB GGHGH IIJIJ AAKAL MMNMN BBOBP BBCBEBeside my window day and night | A |
Its tendrils reaching left and right | A |
A morning glory grew | B |
With blossoms covered pink and white | A |
And deep delicious blue | B |
- | |
Its care became my daily thought | C |
Who to the sweet diversion brought | C |
A bit of florist skill | D |
To guide its progress till it caught | E |
The meaning of my will | D |
- | |
When through the trellis in and out | F |
It bent and turned and climbed about | F |
And so ambitious grew | B |
O'erleaped a chasm beyond the spout | F |
Where raindrops trickled through | B |
- | |
Then in caressing graceful way | G |
Around a door knob twined one day | G |
With modest show of pride | H |
All unaware that danger lay | G |
Just on the other side | H |
- | |
An awkward verdant maid of work | I |
Who dearly loved her tasks to shirk | I |
While rummaging among | J |
Unused apartments with a jerk | I |
The door wide open flung | J |
- | |
And lo there lay uprooted quite | A |
The object of my heart's delight | A |
I did not weep or rant | K |
And yet a grain or two of spite | A |
My secret thoughts would haunt | L |
- | |
So when at night her favorite beau | M |
Beside his charmer sat below | M |
That is dans le cuisine | N |
Occurred as all the neighbors know | M |
A semi tragic scene | N |
- | |
The garden hose obscured from view | B |
Turned on itself and drenched the two | B |
A hapless circumstance | O |
That lengthened out her frizzes new | B |
But shrunk his Sunday pants | P |
- | |
Remember this was years agone | B |
The madcap now hath sober grown | B |
And hose is better wrought | C |
And neither now would run alone | B |
The risk of being caught | E |
