Supplicating Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABAB CDCECE FGFHFG IJIJIJ KJKLKJ| One morn I looked across the way | A |
| And saw you fling your window wide | B |
| To welcome in the breath of May | A |
| In breezes from the mountain side | B |
| And greet the sunlight's earliest ray | A |
| With happy look and satisfied | B |
| - | |
| The pansies on your window sill | C |
| In terra cotta flowerpot | D |
| Like royal gold and purple frill | C |
| Upon the stony casement wrought | E |
| Adorned your tasteful domicile | C |
| And claimed your time and care and thought | E |
| - | |
| In cherry trees the robins sang | F |
| Their sweetest carol to your ear | G |
| And shouts of merry children rang | F |
| Out on the dewy atmosphere | H |
| But to my heart there came a pang | F |
| That my salute you did not hear | G |
| - | |
| I envied then the favored breeze | I |
| That dallied with your flowing hair | J |
| Begrudged the songsters in the trees | I |
| And longed to be a flow'ret fair | J |
| Some favorite blossom like heartease | I |
| Within your miniature parterre | J |
| - | |
| O heart that finds such ample room | K |
| Within thy confines broad and true | J |
| For song and sunshine and perfume | K |
| And all benign impulses go | L |
| I pray thee dissipate my gloom | K |
| And take in thy petitioner too | J |
