Shadow March Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFGAll around the house is the jet black night | A |
It stares through the window pane | B |
It crawls in the corners hiding from the light | A |
And it moves with the moving flame | C |
- | |
Now my little heart goes a beating like a drum | D |
With the breath of the Bogies in my hair | E |
And all around the candle and the crooked shadows come | D |
And go marching along up the stair | E |
- | |
The shadow of the balusters the shadow of the lamp | F |
The shadow of the child that goes to bed | G |
All the wicked shadows coming tramp tramp tramp | F |
With the black night overhead | G |
