The Old Bridge Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEAFGCHIJKLMNOThe old bridge has a wrinkled face | A |
He bends his back | B |
For us to go over | C |
He moans and weeps | D |
But we do not hear | E |
Sorrow stands in his face | A |
For the heavy weight and worry | F |
Of people passing | G |
The trees drop their leaves into the water | C |
The sky nods to him | H |
The leaves float down like small ships | I |
On the blue surface | J |
Which is the sky | K |
He is not always sad | L |
He smiles to see the ships go down | M |
And the little children | N |
Playing on the river banks | O |
