What The Miner In The Desert Said Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFEGHIHThe moon's a brass hooped water keg | A |
A wondrous water feast | B |
If I could climb the ridge and drink | C |
And give drink to my beast | B |
If I could drain that keg the flies | D |
Would not be biting so | E |
My burning feet be spry again | F |
My mule no longer slow | E |
And I could rise and dig for ore | G |
And reach my fatherland | H |
And not be food for ants and hawks | I |
And perish in the sand | H |
