Sonnet, For My Mother-s Birthday Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD AEAFGH| AT thy approach oh sweet bewitching May | A |
| Through ev'ry wood soft melodies resound | B |
| On silken wings Favonian breezes play | A |
| And scatter bloom and fragrance all around | B |
| - | |
| Yet not for these I hail thy gentle reign | C |
| And rove enchanted through thy fairy bow'rs | D |
| Not for thy warbled songs thy zephyr train | C |
| Nor all the incense of thy glowing flow'rs | D |
| - | |
| For this to thee I pour the artless lay | A |
| Oh lovely May thou goddess of the grove | E |
| With thee returns the smiling natal day | A |
| Of her who claims my fond my filial love | F |
| Bright as thy sun beams may it still appear | G |
| Calm as thy skies unclouded with a tear | H |
