Magpie Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCCC AACC

The magpie's mood is never surlyA
every morning wakening earlyA
he gargles music in his throatB
the liquid squabble of his throatB
-
Its silver stridencies of soundC
the bright confusions and the roundC
bell cadences are pealedC
over the frosty half ploughed fieldC
-
Then swooping down self confidentlyA
from the fence post or the treeA
he swaggers in pied feather coatC
and slips the fat worms down his throatC
