June Longings Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDDEEE FFGHDDIII| Lo all about the lofty blue are blown | A |
| Light vapors white like thistle down | B |
| That from their softened silver heaps opaque | C |
| Scatter delicate flake by flake | C |
| Upon the wide loom of the heavens weaving | D |
| Forms of fancies past believing | D |
| And with fantastic show of mute despair | E |
| As for some sweet hope hurt beyond repair | E |
| Melt in the silent voids of sunny air | E |
| - | |
| All day the cooing brooklet runs in tune | F |
| Half sunk i' th' blue the powdery moon | F |
| Shows whitely Hark the bobolink's note I hear it | G |
| Far and faint as a fairy spirit | H |
| Yet all these pass and as some blithe bird winging | D |
| Leaves a heart ache for his singing | D |
| A frustrate passion haunts me evermore | I |
| For that which closest dwells to beauty's core | I |
| O Love canst thou this heart of hope restore | I |
