Twenty Years Ago Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBB CDCD ECEC BFBF| Round the house were lilacs and strawberries | A |
| And foal foots spangling the paths | B |
| And far away on the sand hills dewberries | B |
| Caught dust from the sea's long swaths | B |
| - | |
| Up the wolds the woods were walking | C |
| And nuts fell out of their hair | D |
| At the gate the nets hung balking | C |
| The star lit rush of a hare | D |
| - | |
| In the autumn fields the stubble | E |
| Tinkled the music of gleaning | C |
| At a mother's knees the trouble | E |
| Lost all its meaning | C |
| - | |
| Yea what good beginnings | B |
| To this sad end | F |
| Have we had our innings | B |
| God forfend | F |
