Something Childish, But Very Natural Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAD EFGEG HIJHK| If I had but two little wings | A |
| And were a little feathery bird | B |
| To you I'd fly my dear | C |
| But thoughts like these are idle things | A |
| And I stay here | D |
| - | |
| But in my sleep to you I fly | E |
| I'm always with you in my sleep | F |
| The world is all one's own | G |
| But then one wakes and where am I | E |
| All all alone | G |
| - | |
| Sleep stays not though a monarch bids | H |
| So I love to wake ere break of day | I |
| For though my sleep be gone | J |
| Yet while 'tis dark one shuts one's lids | H |
| And still dreams on | K |
