Peter, Peter pumpkin eater,
Had a wife but couldn't keep her;
He put her in a pumpkin shell
And there he kept her very well.

Peter, peter pumpkin eater,
had another but didn't love her;
Peter learned to read and spell,
And then he loved her very well.

To summarize, this is about a man named Peter, whose wife cheated on him (he couldn't keep her). Peter murders this wife, and then puts her body in a pumpkin shell. In the second stanza, we can infer that Peter has a second wife, who he can love only after becoming literate (being able to read and write).

As for the rhyme scheme, both stanzas are AABB. This is because the last words in the first two lines rhyme with each other (eater, keep her; shell, well), as well as the last words in the last two lines (eater, love her; spell, well).

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Use an apostrophe in the possessive form of a noun to indicate ownership. To

show

ownership, add apostrophe + s to the end of a word, with one exception: To show

ownership with a plural noun already ending in s add only the apostrophe.

 All singular nouns show possession by adding apostrophe + s ('s), including those

that already end in s.

Examples:

A boy's shirt is under the chair.

The child's toy was on the shelf.

Lois's book is fascinating.

The bus's door was still open
