Mockery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDCDCD

God I return to You on April daysA
When along country roads You walk with meB
And my faith blossoms like the earliest treeB
That shames the bleak world with its yellow spraysA
My faith revives when through a rosy hazeA
The clover sprinkled hills smile quietlyB
Young winds uplift a bird's clean ecstasyB
For this O God my joyousness and praiseA
-
But now the crowded streets and choking airsC
The squalid people bruised and tossed aboutD
These or the over brilliant thoroughfaresC
The too loud laughter and the empty shoutD
The mirth mad city tragic with its caresC
For this O God my silence and my doubtD
