A March Snow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCBDBDEEFF| Let the old snow be covered with the new | A |
| The trampled snow so soiled and stained and sodden | B |
| Let it be hidden wholly from our view | A |
| By pure white flakes all trackless and untrodden | B |
| When Winter dies low at the sweet Spring's feet | C |
| Let him be mantled in a clean white sheet | C |
| Let the old life be covered by the new | B |
| The old past life so full of sad mistakes | D |
| Let it be wholly hidden from the view | B |
| By deeds as white and silent as snow flakes | D |
| Ere this earth life melts in the eternal Spring | E |
| Let the white mantle of repentance fling | E |
| Soft drapery about it fold on fold | F |
| Even as the new snow covers up the old | F |
