A Spring Sonnet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDECE| Last night beneath the mockery of the moon | A |
| I heard the sudden startled whisperings | B |
| Of wakened birds settling their restless wings | B |
| The North east brought his word of gladness Soon | A |
| And all the night with wonder was a swoon | A |
| A soul had breathed into long dreaming things | B |
| Some unseen hand hovered above the strings | B |
| Some cosmic chord had set the earth in tune | A |
| And when I rose I saw the Bay arrayed | C |
| In her grey robe against the coming heat | D |
| A pulse awoke within the stirring street | D |
| The wattle gold upon the pavements thrown | E |
| And through the quiet of the colonnade | C |
| The smoky perfume of boronia blown | E |
