A Catch Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDDE AEEEFFGGE EHEIEEJJK| When roads are mired with ice and snow | A |
| And the air of morn is crisp with rime | B |
| When the holly hangs by the mistletoe | A |
| And bells ring in the CHRISTMAS time | B |
| It's Saddle my Heart and ride away | C |
| To the sweet faced girl with the eyes of gray | C |
| Who waits with a smile for the gifts you bring | D |
| A man's strong love and a wedding ring | D |
| It's Saddle my Heart and ride | E |
| - | |
| When vanes veer North and storm winds blow | A |
| And the sun of noon is a blur o'erhead | E |
| When the holly hangs by the mistletoe | E |
| And the CHRISTMAS service is sung and said | E |
| It's Come O my Heart and wait awhile | F |
| Where the organ peals in the altar aisle | F |
| For the gifts that the church now gives to you | G |
| A woman's hand and a heart that's true | G |
| It's Come O my Heart and wait | E |
| - | |
| When rooms gleam warm with the fire's glow | E |
| And the sleet raps sharp on the window pane | H |
| When the holly hangs by the mistletoe | E |
| And CHRISTMAS revels begin again | I |
| It's Home O my Heart and love at last | E |
| And her happy breast to your own held fast | E |
| A song to sing and a tale to tell | J |
| A good night kiss and all is well | J |
| It's Home O my Heart and love | K |
