The Artist Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAABCDAA AAAEAADDFAEGAHIJAD

Mr TA
bareheadedA
in a soiled undershirtA
his hair standing outA
on all sidesB
stood on his toesC
heels togetherD
arms gracefullyA
for the momentA
-
curled above his headA
Then he whirled aboutA
boundedA
into the airE
and with an entrechatA
perfectly achievedA
completed the figureD
My motherD
taken by surpriseF
where she satA
in her invalid's chairE
was left speechlessG
Bravo she cried at lastA
and clapped her handsH
The man's wifeI
came from the kitchenJ
What goes on here she saidA
But the show was overD
