My Husky Team Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCACA DEDFGCAC HIJIKBAB LMNMOBOB| I met an ancient man who mushed | A |
| With Peary to the Pole | B |
| Said I In all that land so hushed | A |
| What most inspired your soul | B |
| He looked at me with bleary eye | C |
| He scratched a hoary head | A |
| You know that Sourdoughs jest cain't lie | C |
| So here's the dope he said | A |
| - | |
| That hike was like a devil's dream | D |
| Just blizzards gales and fogs | E |
| But I was leadin' wi' my team | D |
| O' seven husky dogs | F |
| Day after day I steered my sleigh | G |
| Yet spry o' heart was I | C |
| And every night the Northern Light | A |
| Danced ballys in the sky | C |
| - | |
| Them dogs o' mine seemed to divine | H |
| Their mighty destiny | I |
| They howled with joy and like a boy | J |
| I jined them in their glee | I |
| While like a spark from out the dark | K |
| Fame spurred us to our goal | B |
| On on we sped the winnin' sled | A |
| To gain the Pole the POLE | B |
| - | |
| I saw it clear I raised a cheer | L |
| I knowed the prize was won | M |
| The huskies too like wind they flew | N |
| Them critters sure could run | M |
| The light was dim the site was grim | O |
| But sunshine swept my soul | B |
| To see each husky lift a limb | O |
| And irrigate the Pole | B |
