The Gladiolas. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGFG| As tall as the lily as tall as the rose | A |
| And almost as tall as the hollyhocks | B |
| Ranked breast to breast in sentinel rows | A |
| Stand the gladiola stocks | B |
| - | |
| And some are red as the humming bird's blood | C |
| And some are pied as the butterfly race | D |
| And each is shaped like a velvet hood | E |
| Gold lined with delicate lace | D |
| - | |
| For you know the goblins that come like musk | F |
| To tumble and romp in the flowers' laps | G |
| When you see big fire fly eyes in the dusk | F |
| Hang there their goblin caps | G |
