April Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDECFGHIJ FKALMN OALSAVOR 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 |
