April In The Hills Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAABCCCD EEEFGGGF HHHIGGGI GGGJGGGJ KKKLGGGLTo day the world is wide and fair | A |
With sunny fields of lucid air | A |
And waters dancing everywhere | A |
The snow is almost gone | B |
The noon is builded high with light | C |
And over heaven's liquid height | C |
In steady fleets serene and white | C |
The happy clouds go on | D |
- | |
The channels run the bare earth steams | E |
And every hollow rings and gleams | E |
With jetting falls and dashing streams | E |
The rivers burst and fill | F |
The fields are full of little lakes | G |
And when the romping wind awakes | G |
The water ruffles blue and shakes | G |
And the pines roar on the hill | F |
- | |
The crows go by a noisy throng | H |
About the meadows all day long | H |
The shore lark drops his brittle song | H |
And up the leafless tree | I |
The nut hatch runs and nods and clings | G |
The bluebird dips with flashing wings | G |
The robin flutes the sparrow sings | G |
And the swallows float and flee | I |
- | |
I break the spirit's cloudy bands | G |
A wanderer in enchanted lands | G |
I feel the sun upon my hands | G |
And far from care and strife | J |
The broad earth bids me forth I rise | G |
With lifted brow and upward eyes | G |
I bathe my spirit in blue skies | G |
And taste the springs of life | J |
- | |
I feel the tumult of new birth | K |
I waken with the wakening earth | K |
I match the bluebird in her mirth | K |
And wild with wind and sun | L |
A treasurer of immortal days | G |
I roam the glorious world with praise | G |
The hillsides and the woodland ways | G |
Till earth and I are one | L |
