A Calendar Of Sonnets: January Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEEDDEO Winter frozen pulse and heart of fire | A |
What loss is theirs who from thy kingdom turn | B |
Dismayed and think thy snow a sculptured urn | B |
Of death Far sooner in midsummer tire | A |
The streams than under ice June could not hire | A |
Her roses to forego the strength they learn | B |
In sleeping on thy breast No fires can burn | B |
The bridges thou dost lay where men desire | A |
In vain to build | C |
O Heart when Love's sun goes | D |
To northward and the sounds of singing cease | E |
Keep warm by inner fires and rest in peace | E |
Sleep on content as sleeps the patient rose | D |
Walk boldly on the white untrodden snows | D |
The winter is the winter's own release | E |
