Valentine Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABAB ACACAC ADADAD AAAAAA| This is the time for birds to mate | A |
| To day the dove | B |
| Will mark the ancient amorous date | A |
| With moans of love | B |
| The crow will change his call to prate | A |
| His hopes thereof | B |
| - | |
| The starling will display the red | A |
| That lights his wings | C |
| The wren will know the sweet things said | A |
| By him who swings | C |
| And ducks and dips his crested head | A |
| And sings and sings | C |
| - | |
| They are obedient to their blood | A |
| Nor ask a sign | D |
| Save buoyant air and swelling bud | A |
| At hands divine | D |
| But choose each in the barren wood | A |
| His valentine | D |
| - | |
| In caution's maze they never wait | A |
| Until they die | A |
| They flock the season's open gate | A |
| Ere time steals by | A |
| Love shall we see and imitate | A |
| You love and I | A |
