His Wife And Baby Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCCBDDEFFG HHBII JJBKKBIn the lone place of the leaves | A |
Where they touch the hanging eaves | A |
There sprang a spray of joyous song that sounded sweet and sturdy | B |
And the baby in the bed | C |
Raised the shining of his head | C |
And pulled the mother's lids apart to wake and watch the birdie | B |
She kissed lip dimples sweet | D |
The red soles of his feet | D |
The waving palms that patted hers as wind blown blossoms wander | E |
He twined her tresses silk | F |
Round his neck as white as milk | F |
'Now baby say what birdie sings upon his green spray yonder ' | G |
- | |
'He sings a plenty things | H |
Just watch him wash his wings | H |
He says Papa will march to day with drums home through the city | B |
Here birdie here's my cup | I |
You drink the milk all up | I |
I'll kiss you birdie now you're washed like baby clean and pretty ' | - |

She rose she sought the skies | J |
With the twin joys of her eyes | J |
She sent the strong dove of her soul up through the dawning's glory | B |
She kissed upon her hand | K |
The glowing golden band | K |
That bound the fine scroll of her life and clasped her simple story | B |
