Music Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAABCCCB DDDEFFFEThe wind harp has music it moans to the tree | A |
And so has the shell that complains to the sea | A |
The lark that sings merrily over the lea | A |
The reed of the rude shepherd boy | B |
We revel in music when day has begun | C |
When rock fountains gush into glee as they run | C |
And stars of the morn sing their hymns to the sun | C |
Who brightens the hill tops with joy | B |
- | |
The spirit of melody floats in the air | D |
Her instruments tuning to harmony there | D |
Our senses beguiling from sorrow and care | D |
In blessings sent down from above | E |
But Nature has music far more to my choice | F |
And all in her exquisite changes rejoice | F |
No tones thrill my heart like the dear human voice | F |
When breathed by the being I love | E |
