The Fir-tree Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDB AEFEDEThe winds have blown more bitter | A |
Each darkening day of fall | B |
High over all the house tops | C |
The stars are far and small | B |
I wonder will my fir tree | D |
Be green in spite of all | B |

O grief is colder colder | A |
Than wind from any part | E |
And tears of grief are bitter tears | F |
And doubt's a sorer smart | E |
But I promised to my fir tree | D |
To keep the fragrant heart | E |
