Johnny Speaks Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBC DDEFC| The 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 |
