Mockery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDCDCD| God I return to You on April days | A |
| When along country roads You walk with me | B |
| And my faith blossoms like the earliest tree | B |
| That shames the bleak world with its yellow sprays | A |
| My faith revives when through a rosy haze | A |
| The clover sprinkled hills smile quietly | B |
| Young winds uplift a bird's clean ecstasy | B |
| For this O God my joyousness and praise | A |
| - | |
| But now the crowded streets and choking airs | C |
| The squalid people bruised and tossed about | D |
| These or the over brilliant thoroughfares | C |
| The too loud laughter and the empty shout | D |
| The mirth mad city tragic with its cares | C |
| For this O God my silence and my doubt | D |
