October In New Zealand Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBC DDEEC CCFFC

O JUNE has her diamonds her diamonds of sheenA
Meet for a queen s neck if Death had e er a queenA
June has her blue days jewels of delightB
Set in the ivory of Alp land whiteB
But October October s the lady o the yearC
-
O January s garland is redder than the roseD
And the wine red ruby of January glowsD
All the way to madness and half the way to sinE
When sleep is in the poppy and fire is in the whinE
But October October s the lady o the yearC
-
October will ride in a mantle o the vairC
With the flower o the quince in her dew wet hairC
October will ride to the gates of the dayF
With the bluebells ringing on her maiden wayF
For October October s the lady o the yearC
