Old Man Rain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAAAA AAAAAA BAABAA

Old Man Rain at the windowpaneA
Knocks and fumbles and knocks againB
His long nailed fingers slip and strainA
Old Man Rain at the windowpaneA
Knocks all night but knocks in vainA
Old Man RainA
-
Old Man Rain at the windowpaneA
Reels and shambles along the laneA
His old gray whiskers drip and drainA
Old Man Rain with fuddled brainA
Reels and staggers like one insaneA
Old Man RainA
-
Old Man Rain is back againB
With old Mis' Wind at the windowpaneA
Dancing there with her tattered trainA
Her old shawl flaps as she whirls againB
In the wildman dance and is torn in twainA
Old Mis' Wind and Old Man RainA
