Sonnet--to A Daisy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA CCD EED| Slight as thou art thou art enough to hide | A |
| Like all created things secrets from me | B |
| And stand a barrier to eternity | B |
| And I how can I praise thee well and wide | A |
| - | |
| From where I dwell upon the hither side | A |
| Thou little veil for so great mystery | B |
| When shall I penetrate all things and thee | B |
| And then look back For this I must abide | A |
| - | |
| Till thou shalt grow and fold and be unfurled | C |
| Literally between me and the world | C |
| Then I shall drink from in beneath a spring | D |
| - | |
| And from a poet's side shall read his book | E |
| O daisy mine what will it be to look | E |
| From God's side even of such a simple thing | D |
