Rhyme Scheme: A BCBC ADAD EFEF GAGAAnd singing still dost soar and soaring ever singest | A |
- | |
- | |
The earth was green the sky was blue | B |
I saw and heard one sunny morn | C |
A skylark hang between the two | B |
A singing speck above the corn | C |
- | |
A stage below in gay accord | A |
White butterflies danced on the wing | D |
And still the singing skylark soared | A |
And silent sank and soared to sing | D |
- | |
The cornfield stretched a tender green | E |
To right and left beside my walks | F |
I knew he had a nest unseen | E |
Somewhere among the million stalks | F |
- | |
And as I paused to hear his song | G |
While swift the sunny moments slid | A |
Perhaps his mate sat listening long | G |
And listened longer than I did | A |
