Spring Comes To Murray Hill Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCBDBBBAEFCCC

I sit in an office at Madison AvenueA
And say to myself You have a responsible job havenueA
Why then do you fritter away your time on this doggerelB
If you have a sore throat you can cure it by using a good goggeralB
If you have a sore foot you can get it fixed by a chiropodistC
And you can get your original sin removed by St John the BopodistC
Why then should this flocculent lassitude be incurableB
Kansas City Kansas proves that even Kansas City needn't always beD
MissouribleB
Up up my soul This inaction is abominableB
Perhaps it is the result of disturbances abdominableB
The pilgrims settled Massachusetts in when they landed on a stoneA
hummockE
Maybe if they were here now they would settle my stomachF
Oh if I only had the wings of a birdC
Instead of being confined on Madison Avenue I could soar in a jiffy toC
Second or ThirdC
