A Suggestion, To C. A. D Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDC EFFEGHHG| Let the wild red rose bloom Though not to thee | A |
| So delicately perfect as the white | B |
| And unwed lily drooping in the light | B |
| Though she has known the kisses of the bee | A |
| And tells her amorous tale to passers by | C |
| In perfumed whispers and with untaught grace | D |
| Still let the red rose bloom in her own place | D |
| She could not be the lily should she try | C |
| - | |
| Why to the wondrous nightingale cry hush | E |
| Or bid her cease her wild heart breaking lay | F |
| And tune her voice to imitate the way | F |
| The whip poor will makes music or the thrush | E |
| All airs of sorrow to one theme belong | G |
| And passion is not copyrighted yet | H |
| Each heart writes its own music Why not let | H |
| The nightingale unchided sing her song | G |
