Summer Winds Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCBCB DEDEFGFG HGHGGIGJ| The wind waves oer the meadows green | A |
| And shakes my own wild flowers | B |
| And shifts about the moving scene | A |
| Like the life of summer hours | B |
| The little bents with reedy head | C |
| The scarce seen shapes of flowers | B |
| All kink about like skeins of thread | C |
| In these wind shaken hours | B |
| - | |
| All stir and strife and life and bustle | D |
| In everything around one sees | E |
| The rushes whistle sedges rustle | D |
| The grass is buzzing round like bees | E |
| The butterflies are tossed about | F |
| Like skiffs upon a stormy sea | G |
| The bees are lost amid the rout | F |
| And drop in their perplexity | G |
| - | |
| Wilt thou be mine thou bonny lass | H |
| Thy drapery floats so gracefully | G |
| We'll walk along the meadow grass | H |
| We'll stand beneath the willow tree | G |
| We'll mark the little reeling bee | G |
| Along the grassy ocean rove | I |
| Tossed like a little boat at sea | G |
| And interchange our vows of love | J |
