The Death Of Autumn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADDEFGFG| When reeds are dead and a straw to thatch the marshes | A |
| And feathered pampas grass rides into the wind | B |
| Like aged warriors westward tragic thinned | C |
| Of half their tribe and over the flattened rushes | A |
| Stripped of its secret open stark and bleak | D |
| Blackens afar the half forgotten creek | D |
| Then leans on me the weight of the year and crushes | E |
| My heart I know that Beauty must ail and die | F |
| And will be born again but ah to see | G |
| Beauty stiffened staring up at the sky | F |
| Oh Autumn Autumn What is the Spring to me | G |
