Why Spring Fell Flat Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDEFF GHGIIIThe Spring is gone I have not seen | A |
Its fairies tripping on the Block | B |
Arcadians in grey and green | A |
The happy flapper in a frock | B |
So dainty that the breezes fret | C |
It like the smoke of cigarette | C |
- | |
I ve seen no pixies of the pave | D |
The season deck with flower and plume | E |
No slim entrancing elves that wave | D |
Their gossamers like wattle bloom | E |
But only staid trim maids arrayed | F |
In Autumn costumes tailor made | F |
- | |
Not like a garden poppy strewn | G |
And scented as an Eden fair | H |
Has been the Block at afternoon | G |
So Spring came not to me this year | I |
Curse on the greedy profiteer | I |
Who made the dear ones all too dear | I |
