When Shall We Meet Again? Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHGH IJIKLMLNHow many times Spring blossoms meek | A |
Have faded on the land | B |
Since last I kissed that pretty cheek | A |
Caressed that happy hand | B |
Eight time the green's been painted white | C |
With daisies in the grass | D |
Since I looked on thy eyes so bright | C |
And pressed my bonny lass | D |
- | |
The ground lark sung about the farms | E |
The blackbird in the wood | F |
When fast locked in each other's arms | E |
By hedgerow thorn we stood | F |
It was a pleasant Sabbath day | G |
The sun shone bright and round | H |
His light through dark oaks passed and lay | G |
Like gold upon the ground | H |
- | |
How beautiful the blackbird sung | I |
And answered soft the thrush | J |
And sweet the pearl like dew drops hung | I |
Upon the white thorn bush | K |
O happy day eight years ago | L |
We parted without pain | M |
The blackbird sings primroses blow | L |
When shall we meet again | N |
