Her Valentine Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAA AAAA AAAA| Somebody's sent a funny little valentine to me | A |
| It's a bunch of baby roses in a vase of filigree | A |
| And hovering above them just as cute as he can be | A |
| Is a fairy Cupid tangled in a scarf of poetry | A |
| - | |
| And the prankish little fellow looks so knowing in his glee | A |
| With his golden bow and arrow aiming most unerringly | A |
| At a pair of hearts so labeled that I may read and see | A |
| That one is meant for One Who Loves and one is meant for me | A |
| - | |
| But I know the lad who sent it It's as plain as A B C | A |
| For the roses they are blushing and the vase stands awkwardly | A |
| And the little god above it though as cute as he can be | A |
| Can not breathe the lightest whisper of his burning love for me | A |
