Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFCGHIAJKLMDDNTo what purpose April do you return again | A |
Beauty is not enough | B |
You can no longer quiet me with the redness | C |
Of little leaves opening stickily | D |
I know what I know | E |
The sun is hot on my neck as I observe | F |
The spikes of the crocus | C |
The smell of the earth is good | G |
It is apparent that there is no death | H |
But what does that signify | I |
Not only under ground are the brains of men | A |
Eaten by maggots | J |
Life in itself | K |
Is nothing | L |
An empty cup a flight of uncarpeted stairs | M |
It is not enough that yearly down this hill | D |
April | D |
Comes like an idiot babbling and strewing flowers | N |
