The Boy In The Rain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEFGE| Sodden and shivering in mud and rain | A |
| Half in the light that serves but to reveal | B |
| The blackness of an alley and the reel | B |
| Homeward of wretchedness in tattered train | A |
| A boy stands crouched big drops of drizzle drain | A |
| Slow from a rag that was a hat no steel | B |
| Is harder than his look that seems to feel | B |
| More than his small life's share of woe and pain | A |
| The pack of papers huddled by his arm | C |
| Is pulp and still he hugs the worthless lot | D |
| A door flares open to let out a curse | E |
| And drag him in out of the night and storm | F |
| Out of the night you say You know not what | G |
| To blacker night God knows and hell or worse | E |
