My April Lady Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBADED EFGFAHEH IJKJLMCM

When down the stair at morningA
The sunbeams round her floatB
Sweet rivulets of laughterC
Are bubbling in her throatB
The gladness of her greetingA
Is gold without alloyD
And in the morning sunlightE
I think her name is JoyD
-
When in the evening twilightE
The quiet book room liesF
We read the sad old balladsG
While from her hidden eyesF
The tears are falling fallingA
That give her heart reliefH
And in the evening twilightE
I think her name is GriefH
-
My little April ladyI
Of sunshine and of showersJ
She weaves the old spring magicK
And breaks my heart in flowersJ
But when her moods are endedL
She nestles like a doveM
Then by the pain and raptureC
I know her name is LoveM
