Summer Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCCB DEFFE GHIJH DKLLM NOPPO DKQRK

I looked into my heart to writeA
And found a desert thereB
But when I looked again I heardC
Howling and proud in every wordC
The hyena despairB
-
Great summer sun great summer sunD
All loss burns in trophiesE
And in the cold sheet of the skyF
Lifelong the fishlipped lovers lieF
Kissing catastrophesE
-
O loving garden where I layG
When under the breasted treeH
My son stood up behind my eyesI
And groaned Remember that the priceJ
Is vinegar for meH
-
Great summer sun great summer sunD
Turn back to the designerK
I would not be the one to startL
The breaking day and the breaking heartL
For all the grief in ChinaM
-
My one my one my only loveN
Hide hide your face in a leafO
And let the hot tear falling burnP
The stupid heart that will not learnP
The everywhere of griefO
-
Great summer sun great summer sunD
Turn back to the never neverK
Cloud cuckoo happy far off landQ
Where all the love is true love andR
True love goes on for everK
