Gertrude Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCCDEAAB FFBCCDEFFBUnderneath the maple tree | A |
Gertrude worked her filigree | A |
All the summer long | B |
To sweet airs her voice was wed | C |
As she plied her golden thread | C |
Echo stealing through the grove | D |
Filched away the words of love | E |
And the birds from tree to tree | A |
Bore the witching melody | A |
Through avenues of Song | B |
- | |
Underneath the maple trees | F |
Zephyrs chant her melodies | F |
All the summer long | B |
Words and airs no longer wed | C |
Death has snapped the vocal thread | C |
Echo sleeping in the grove | D |
Dreams of liquid airs of love | E |
And the birds among the trees | F |
Fill with sweetest symphonies | F |
Whole avenues of Song | B |
