Money Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEAFAGHIHJKLKAMAM| When I had money money O | A |
| I knew no joy till I went poor | B |
| For many a false man as a friend | C |
| Came knocking all day at my door | D |
| Then felt I like a child that holds | E |
| A trumpet that he must not blow | A |
| Because a man is dead I dared | F |
| Not speak to let this false world know | A |
| Much have I thought of life and seen | G |
| How poor men s hearts are ever light | H |
| And how their wives do hum like bees | I |
| About their work from morn till night | H |
| So when I hear these poor ones laugh | J |
| And see the rich ones coldly frown | K |
| Poor men think I need not go up | L |
| So much as rich men should come down | K |
| When I had money money O | A |
| My many friends proved all untrue | M |
| But now I have no money O | A |
| My friends are real though very few | M |
