Autumn Leaves Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCCB DDEFFE GHIJJI KKBLLB| The Spring's bright tints no more are seen | A |
| And Summer's ample robe of green | A |
| Is russet gold and brown | B |
| When flowers fall to every breeze | C |
| And shed reluctant from the trees | C |
| The leaves drop down | B |
| - | |
| A sadness steals about the heart | D |
| And is it thus from youth we part | D |
| And life's redundant prime | E |
| Must friends like flowers fade away | F |
| And life like Nature know decay | F |
| And bow to time | E |
| - | |
| And yet such sadness meets rebuke | G |
| From every copse in every nook | H |
| Where Autumn's colours glow | I |
| How bright the sky How full the sheaves | J |
| What mellow glories gild the leaves | J |
| Before they go | I |
| - | |
| Then let us sing the jocund praise | K |
| In this bright air of these bright days | K |
| When years our friendships crown | B |
| The love that's loveliest when 'tis old | L |
| When tender tints have turned to gold | L |
| And leaves drop down | B |
