Constant Beauty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED AEAE FGHA| It's good to have the trees again the singing of the breeze again | A |
| It's good to see the lilacs bloom as lovely as of old | B |
| It's good that we can feel again the touch of beauties real again | A |
| For hearts and minds of sorrow now have all that they can hold | B |
| - | |
| The roses haven't changed a bit nor have the lilacs stranged a bit | C |
| They bud and bloom the way they did before the war began | D |
| The world is upside down to day there's much to make us frown to day | E |
| And gloom and sadness everywhere beset the path of man | D |
| - | |
| But now the lilacs bloom again and give us their perfume again | A |
| And now the roses smile at us and nod along the way | E |
| And it is good to see again the blossoms on each tree again | A |
| And feel that nature hasn't changed the way we have to day | E |
| - | |
| Oh we have changed from what we were we're not the carefree lot we were | F |
| Our hearts are filled with sorrow now and grave concern and pain | G |
| But it is good to see once more the blooming lilac tree once more | H |
| And find the constant roses here to comfort us again | A |
