My Lot Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDE FGHGIJKJ| My lot on earth is not all mirth | A |
| Nor is it constant gloom | B |
| Some joys decay and fall away | C |
| But leave much lasting bloom | B |
| My wishes are not always met | D |
| And cares press hard at times | E |
| Yet joyous strains ne'er sink to fret | D |
| Tho' dollars shrink to dimes | E |
| - | |
| My earthly lot boasts not a cot | F |
| No foot of land I own | G |
| No bank account nor phosphate mount | H |
| Nor credit for a loan | G |
| But I can read my title clear | I |
| To mansion robe and crown | J |
| I couple these with lot down here | K |
| And sing tho' foes may frown | J |
