Two Children Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCE FGFGHIHI JKJKALAMGive me your hand oh little one | A |
Like children be we two | B |
Yet I am old my day is done | A |
That barely breaks for you | B |
A baby basket hard you hold | C |
With in it cherries four | D |
You cherish them as men do gold | C |
And count them o'er | E |
- | |
And then you stumble in your walk | F |
The cherries scattered lie | G |
You pick them up with foolish talk | F |
And foolish glad am I | G |
When you wipe one quite clean of dust | H |
And give it unto me | I |
So in the baby basket just | H |
Are three | I |
- | |
All this is simple I confess | J |
A moment piled with peace | K |
Yet loving men have died for less | J |
And will till time shall cease | K |
A silken hand in crinkled one | A |
O Little Innocence | L |
O blessed moment in the son | A |
E'er I go hence | M |
