Sigh No More Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAB AAAC AAAB AAAB AAAB AAAB| The cuckoo and the coo dove's ceaseless calling | A |
| Calling | A |
| Of a meaningless monotony is palling | A |
| All my morning's pleasure in the sun fleck scattered wood | B |
| - | |
| May blossom and blue bird's eye flowers falling | A |
| Falling | A |
| In a litter through the elm tree shade are scrawling | A |
| Messages of true love down the dust of the high road | C |
| - | |
| I do not like to hear the gentle grieving | A |
| Grieving | A |
| Of the she dove in the blossom still believing | A |
| Love will yet again return to her and make all good | B |
| - | |
| When I know that there must ever be deceiving | A |
| Deceiving | A |
| Of the mournful constant heart that while she's weaving | A |
| Her woes her lover woos and sings within another wood | B |
| - | |
| Oh boisterous the cuckoo shouts forestalling | A |
| Stalling | A |
| A progress down the intricate enthralling | A |
| By paths where the wanton headed flowers doff their hood | B |
| - | |
| And like a laughter leads me onward heaving | A |
| Heaving | A |
| A sigh among the shadows thus retrieving | A |
| A decent short regret for that which once was very good | B |
