My Bed Is A Boat Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGHMy bed is like a little boat | A |
Nurse helps me in when I embark | B |
She girds me in my sailor's coat | A |
And starts me in the dark | B |
- | |
At night I go on board and say | C |
Good night to all my friends on shore | D |
I shut my eyes and sail away | C |
And see and hear no more | D |

And sometimes things to bed I take | E |
As prudent sailors have to do | F |
Perhaps a slice of wedding cake | E |
Perhaps a toy or two | F |

All night across the dark we steer | G |
But when the day returns at last | H |
Safe in my room beside the pier | G |
I find my vessel fast | H |
