A Dry Summer Day Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAA BCDD ECCF AAAA GGHH IJKK

It was time of supperA
A treat for the summerA
One could afford no matterA
Should none be call'd a FatherA
-
The table was setB
Waiting for a dessertC
Definitely not for a buffetD
A simmering debted pocketD
-
If things must fall apartE
My device produced no alertC
Seemingly for a business desertC
My family is a school of coy expertsF
-
Mother dear lovely motherA
Why 've you forgotten to botherA
You have kept us all thus far togetherA
Month by month you loved us one anotherA
-
Have we inflicted on youG
To do our day and week dueG
Alas we have children so shrewdH
Wayward complying the work with feudH
-
Although our hands are dryI
Our tongues to a supper stiff and tiedJ
Our ears a warning can reasonK
Our conscience can abide no treasonK

Poet's note: This poem is a kind of subtle protest about Daly in payment of salaries of workers, written in the tone of a letter to a boss. The frustration that comes with depending on salary as the only source of income is mirrored here.
