To A Sister Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCE FGFH IJIJ KLML NONO

A fresh young voice that sings to meA
So often many a simple thingB
Should surely not unanswered beA
By all that I can singB
-
Dear voice be happy every wayC
A thousand changing tones amongD
From little child's unfinished layC
To angel's perfect songE
-
In dewy woods fair soft and greenF
Like morning woods are childhood's bowerG
Be like the voice of brook unseenF
Among the stones and flowersH
-
A joyful voice though born so lowI
And making all its neighbours gladJ
Sweet hidden constant in its flowI
Even when the winds are sadJ
-
So strengthen in a peaceful homeK
And daily deeper meanings bearL
And when life's wildernesses comeM
Be brave and faithful thereL
-
Try all the glorious magic rangeN
Worship forgive console rejoiceO
Until the last and sweetest changeN
So live and grow dear voiceO
