Pirate Story Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD BDBD| Three of us afloat in the meadow by the swing | A |
| Three of us aboard in the basket on the lea | B |
| Winds are in the air they are blowing in the spring | A |
| And waves are on the meadow like the waves there are at sea | B |
| - | |
| Where shall we adventure to day that we're afloat | C |
| Wary of the weather and steering by a star | D |
| Shall it be to Africa a steering of the boat | C |
| To Providence or Babylon or off to Malabar | D |
| - | |
| Hi but here's a squadron a rowing on the sea | B |
| Cattle on the meadow a charging with a roar | D |
| Quick and we'll escape them they're as mad as they can be | B |
| The wicket is the harbour and the garden is the shore | D |
