November Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH JKLK| Much have I spoken of the faded leaf | A |
| Long have I listened to the wailing wind | B |
| And watched it ploughing through the heavy clouds | C |
| For autumn charms my melancholy mind | B |
| - | |
| When autumn comes the poets sing a dirge | D |
| The year must perish all the flowers are dead | E |
| The sheaves are gathered and the mottled quail | F |
| Runs in the stubble but the lark has fled | E |
| - | |
| Still autumn ushers in the Christmas cheer | G |
| The holly berries and the ivy tree | H |
| They weave a chaplet for the Old Year's bier | I |
| These waiting mourners do not sing for me | H |
| - | |
| I find sweet peace in depths of autumn woods | J |
| Where grow the ragged ferns and roughened moss | K |
| The naked silent trees have taught me this | L |
| The loss of beauty is not always loss | K |
