My Neighbors Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABACAC DEDEFGFG| To rest my fagged brain now and then | A |
| When wearied of my proper labors | B |
| I lay aside my lagging pen | A |
| And get to thinking on my neighbors | B |
| For oh around my garret den | A |
| There's woe and poverty a plenty | C |
| And life's so interesting when | A |
| A lad is only two and twenty | C |
| - | |
| Now there's that artist gaunt and wan | D |
| A little card his door adorning | E |
| It reads Je ne suis pour personne | D |
| A very frank and fitting warning | E |
| I fear he's in a sorry plight | F |
| He starves I think too proud to borrow | G |
| I hear him moaning every night | F |
| Maybe they'll find him dead to morrow | G |
