The Investment Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EBBE FF| Over back where they speak of life as staying | A |
| 'You couldn't call it living for it ain't' | B |
| There was an old old house renewed with paint | B |
| And in it a piano loudly playing | A |
| - | |
| Out in the plowed ground in the cold a digger | C |
| Among unearthed potatoes standing still | D |
| Was counting winter dinners one a hill | D |
| With half an ear to the piano's vigor | C |
| - | |
| All that piano and new paint back there | E |
| Was it some money suddenly come into | B |
| Or some extravagance young love had been to | B |
| Or old love on an impulse not to care | E |
| - | |
| Not to sink under being man and wife | F |
| But get some color and music out of life | F |
