The Garden Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC D DE FGFGCHOKED with ill weeds my garden lay a dying | A |
Hard was the ground no bud had heart to blow | B |
Yet shone your smile there with your soft breath sighing | A |
'Have patience for some day the flowers will grow ' | C |
- | |
Some weeds you killed you made a plot and tilled it | D |
'My plot ' you said 'rich harvest yet shall give ' | - |
With sun warmed seeds of hope your dear hands filled it | D |
With rain soft tears of pity bade them live | E |
- | |
So weak among the weeds that had withstood you | F |
One little pure white flower grew by and by | G |
You could not pluck my flower alas how should you | F |
You sowed the seed but let the blossom die | G |
