A Midsummer Day Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBABCABCA| The 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 |
