The Honeysuckle Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEAFGHIJJII PLUCKED a honeysuckle where | A |
The hedge on high is quick with thorn | B |
And climbing for the prize was torn | B |
And fouled my feet in quag water | C |
And by the thorns and by the wind | D |
The blossom that I took was thinn'd | E |
And yet I found it sweet and fair | A |
Thence to a richer growth I came | F |
Where nursed in mellow intercourse | G |
The honeysuckles sprang by scores | H |
Not harried like my single stem | I |
All virgin lamps of scent and dew | J |
So from my hand that first I threw | J |
Yet plucked not any more of them | I |
