Rain a Nursery Rhyme


Rain, rain, go away,
Come again another day;
Little Johnny wants to play.


_________________________________________________________________________

I picked this poem because I used to sing it a lot when I was younger and it is very familiar to me. It also fits into my theme of seasons. The rain reminds me of spring and how it rains a lot but it is still warm enough for the kids to go out and play but they can't. There are many different versions of this rhyme but I picked the most familiar and know version for my blog.

Poetic Devices
repetition - rain, rain
rhyme scheme - aaa
assonance - again another
