Johnny Speaks Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBC DDEFCThe sand man he's a jolly old fellow | A |
His face is kind and his voice is mellow | A |
But he makes your eyelids as heavy as lead | B |
And then you got to go off to bed | B |
I don't think I like the sand man | C |
- | |
But I've been playing this livelong day | D |
It does make a fellow so tired to play | D |
Oh my I'm a yawning right here before ma | E |
I'm the sleepiest fellow that ever you saw | F |
I think I do like the sand man | C |
