Teddy Bear Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCE FGFGHIHI JKJKILIL MNMNDIEI| O Teddy Bear with your head awry | A |
| And your comical twisted smile | B |
| You rub your eyes do you wonder why | A |
| You've slept such a long long while | B |
| As you lay so still in the cupboard dim | C |
| And you heard on the roof the rain | D |
| Were you thinking what has become of him | C |
| And when will he play again | E |
| - | |
| Do you sometimes long for a chubby hand | F |
| And a voice so sweetly shrill | G |
| O Teddy Bear don't you understand | F |
| Why the house is awf'ly still | G |
| You sit with your muzzle propped on your paws | H |
| And your whimsical face askew | I |
| Don't wait don't wait for your friend because | H |
| He's sleeping and dreaming too | I |
| - | |
| Aye sleeping long You remember how | J |
| He stabbed our hearts with his cries | K |
| And oh the dew of pain on his brow | J |
| And the deeps of pain in his eyes | K |
| And Teddy Bear you remember too | I |
| As he sighed and sank to his rest | L |
| How all of a sudden he smiled to you | I |
| And he clutched you close to his breast | L |
| - | |
| I'll put you away little Teddy Bear | M |
| In the cupboard far from my sight | N |
| Maybe he'll come and he'll kiss you there | M |
| A wee white ghost in the night | N |
| But me I'll live with my love and pain | D |
| A weariful lifetime through | I |
| And my Hope will I see him again again | E |
| Ah God If I only knew | I |
