Ode To Autumn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABACACAAD CECEFGAFGGA HIHIJKAJLKA| Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness | A |
| Close bosom friend of the maturing sun | B |
| Conspiring with him how to load and bless | A |
| With fruit the vines that round the thatch eaves run | B |
| To bend with apples the mossed cottage trees | A |
| And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core | C |
| To swell the gourd and plump the hazel shells | A |
| With a sweet kernel to set budding more | C |
| And still more later flowers for the bees | A |
| Until they think warm days will never cease | A |
| For Summer has o'er brimmed their clammy cell | D |
| - | |
| Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy store | C |
| Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find | E |
| Thee sitting careless on a granary floor | C |
| Thy hair soft lifted by the winnowing wind | E |
| Or on a half reaped furrow sound asleep | F |
| Drowsed with the fume of poppies while thy hook | G |
| Spares the next swath and all its twined flowers | A |
| And sometimes like a gleaner thou dost keep | F |
| Steady thy laden head across a brook | G |
| Or by a cider press with patient look | G |
| Thou watchest the last oozings hours by hours | A |
| - | |
| Where are the songs of Spring Ay where are they | H |
| Think not of them thou hast thy music too | I |
| While barred clouds bloom the soft dying day | H |
| And touch the stubble plains with rosy hue | I |
| Then in a wailful choir the small gnats mourn | J |
| Among the river sallows borne aloft | K |
| Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies | A |
| And full grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn | J |
| Hedge crickets sing and now with treble soft | L |
| The redbreast whistles from a garden croft | K |
| And gathering swallows twitter in the skies | A |
