Spring Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCA DEEDDE| Soft littered is the new year's lambing fold | A |
| And in the hollowed haystack at its side | B |
| The shepherd lies o' night now wakeful eyed | B |
| At the ewes' travailing call through the dark cold | A |
| The young rooks cheep 'mid the thick caw o' the old | A |
| And near unpeopled stream sides on the ground | C |
| By her Spring cry the moorhen's nest is found | C |
| Where the drained flood lands flaunt their marigold | A |
| - | |
| Chill are the gusts to which the pastures cower | D |
| And chill the current where the young reeds stand | E |
| As green and close as the young wheat on land | E |
| Yet here the cuckoo and cuckoo flower | D |
| Plight to the heart Spring's perfect imminent hour | D |
| Whose breath shall soothe you like your dear one's hand | E |
