The Daisy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBAABCDDCCD| See where it stands the world appointed flower | A |
| Pure gold at centre like the sun at noon | B |
| A mimic sun to light a true love bower | A |
| For fair Queen Mab now dead or in a swoon | B |
| Whom late a poet saw beneath the moon | B |
| It lifts its dainty face till sunset hour | A |
| As if endowed with nympholeptic power | A |
| Then shuts its petals like a folding tune | B |
| I love it more than words of mine can say | C |
| And more than anchorite may breathe in prayer | D |
| Methinks the lark has made it still his care | D |
| To brag of daisies to the lord of day | C |
| Well I will follow suit as best I may | C |
| Launching my love songs on the summer air | D |
