All For Me Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCBCB DEDEFGFG HIHIJKJK LMLMNBNB

All for me the bumble beeA
Drones his song in the perfect weatherB
And just on purpose to sing to meA
Thrush and blue bird came North togetherB
Just for me in red and whiteC
Bloom and blossom the fields of cloverB
And all for me and my delightC
The wild Wind follows and plays the loverB
-
The mighty sun with a scorching kissD
I have read and heard and do not doubt itE
Has burned up a thousand worlds like thisD
And never stopped to think about itE
And yet I believe he hurries upF
Just on purpose to kiss my flowersG
To drink the dew from the lily cupF
And help it to grow through golden hoursG
-
I know I am only a speck of dustH
An individual mite of massesI
Clinging upon the outer crustH
Of a little ball of cooling gasesI
And yet and yet say what you willJ
And laugh if you please at my lack of reasonK
For me wholly and for me stillJ
Blooms and blossoms the Summer seasonK
-
Nobody else has ever heardL
The story the Wind to me disclosesM
And none but I and the humming birdL
Can read the hearts of the crimson rosesM
Ah my Summer my love my ownN
The world grows glad in your smiling weatherB
Yet all for me and me aloneN
You and your Court came North togetherB
