A Midsummer Day Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBABCABCAThe locust gyres the heat intensifies' | A |
The rain crow croaks from hot leafed tree to tree | B |
The butterfly a flame fleck aimlessly | B |
Droops down the air and knows not where it flies | A |
Beside the stream whose bed in places | A |
The small green heron flaps the minnows flee | B |
And mid the blackberry lilies wasp and bee | B |
Drowse where the cattle pant with half closed eyes | A |
The Summer Day like some tired labourer | B |
Lays down her burden here and sinks to rest | C |
The tan of toil upon her face and hands | A |
She dreams and lo the heavens over her | B |
Unfold her dream Along the boundless West | C |
Rolls gold the harvest of the sunset's lands | A |
