April Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDECFGHIJ FKALMN OAL| SAVOR of love is thick on the April air | A |
| The blunted boughs dispose their lacy bloom | B |
| And many sorry steeds dismissed to pasture | C |
| Toss their old forelocks flourish heavy heels | D |
| Where is there any unpersuaded poet | E |
| So angry still against the wrongs of winter | C |
| Which caused the dainty earth to droop and die | F |
| So vengeant for his vine and summer song | G |
| As to decline the good releasing thaw | H |
| Poets have temperature and follow seasons | I |
| And covenants go out at equinox | J |
| - | |
| - | |
| The champions For Heaven riding high | F |
| Above the icy death considered truly | K |
| 'My agate icy work I thought it fair | A |
| Yet I have lacked that pretty lift of praise | L |
| That mounted once from these emaciate minstrels | M |
| They will not sing and duty drops away | N |
| And I must turn and make a soft amend ' | - |
| At once he showered April down until | O |
| The bleak twigs bloom again and soon I swear | A |
| He shall receive his praise | L |
