Through The Wood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB ACAC ADAD

THROUGH the wood the green wood the wet wood the light woodA
Love and I went maying a thousand lives agoB
Shafts of golden sunlight had made a golden bright woodA
In my heart reflected because I loved you soB
-
-
Through the wood the chill wood the brown wood the bare woodA
I alone went lonely no later than last yearC
What had thinned the branches and wrecked my dear and fair woodA
Killed the pale wild roses and left the rose thorns sereC
-
-
Through the wood the dead wood the sad wood the lone woodA
Winds of winter shiver through lichens old and greyD
You ride past forgetting the wood that was our own woodA
All our own and withered as ever a flower of MayD
