Question

Find out the rhyme scheme of the poem marrog

Answer 1

The Marrog

My desk's at the back of the class

    And nobody, nobody knows

        I'm a Morrog from Mars

With a body of brass

    And seventeen fingers and toes.


Wouldn't they shriek if they knew

    I've three eyes at the back of my head

    And my hair is bright purple

My nose is deep blue

    And my teeth are half-yellow, half-red.


My five arms are silver, and spiked

    With knives on them sharper than spears.

I could go back right now if I liked-

    And return in a million light-years.


I could gobble them all 

For I'm seven foot tall

    And return in a million ears,


Wouldn't they yell if they knew,

    If they guessed that a Morrog was here?

Ha-ha, they haven't a clue-

    Or wouldn't they tremble with fear!

"Look, look, a Morrog"

    They'd all scream-and SMACK

The blackboard would fall and the ceiling would crack

    And teacher would faint, I suppose.

But I grin to myself,l sitting right at the back

    And nobody, nobody knows.
