November Evening Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCCC CCCC AACC DDCC EECCCome for the dusk is our own let us fare forth together | A |
With a quiet delight in our hearts for the ripe still autumn weather | A |
Through the rustling valley and wood and over the crisping meadow | B |
Under a high sprung sky winnowed of mist and shadow | B |
- | |
Sharp is the frosty air and through the far hill gaps showing | C |
Lucent sunset lakes of crocus and green are glowing | C |
'Tis the hour to walk at will in a wayward unfettered roaming | C |
Caring for naught save the charm elusive and swift of the gloaming | C |
- | |
Watchful and stirless the fields as if not unkindly holding | C |
Harvested joys in their clasp and to their broad bosoms folding | C |
Baby hopes of a Spring trusted to motherly keeping | C |
Thus to be cherished and happed through the long months of their sleeping | C |
- | |
Silent the woods are and gray but the firs than ever are greener | A |
Nipped by the frost till the tang of their loosened balsam is keener | A |
And one little wind in their boughs eerily swaying and swinging | C |
Very soft and low like a wandering minstrel is singing | C |
- | |
Beautiful is the year but not as the springlike maiden | D |
Garlanded with her hopes rather the woman laden | D |
With wealth of joy and grief worthily won through living | C |
Wearing her sorrow now like a garment of praise and thanksgiving | C |
- | |
Gently the dark comes down over the wild fair places | E |
The whispering glens in the hills the open starry spaces | E |
Rich with the gifts of the night sated with questing and dreaming | C |
We turn to the dearest of paths where the star of the homelight is gleaming | C |
