Fall Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDAAEEFGFHHIIA AJJ| Sad hearted spirit of the solitudes | A |
| Who comest through the ruin wedded woods | A |
| Gray gowned with fog gold girdled with the gloom | B |
| Of tawny twilights burdened with perfume | B |
| Of rain wet uplands chilly with the mist | C |
| And all the beauty of the fire kissed | C |
| Cold forests crimsoning thy indolent way | D |
| Odorous of death and drowsy with decay | D |
| I think of thee as seated 'mid the showers | A |
| Of languid leaves that cover up the flowers | A |
| The little flower sisterhoods whom June | E |
| Once gave wild sweetness to as to a tune | E |
| A singer gives her soul's wild melody | F |
| Watching the squirrel store his granary | G |
| Or 'mid old orchards I have pictured thee | F |
| Thy hair's profusion blown about thy back | H |
| One lovely shoulder bathed with gipsy black | H |
| Upon thy palm one nestling cheek and sweet | I |
| The rosy russets tumbled at thy feet | I |
| Was it a voice lamenting for the flowers | A |
| A heart sick bird that sang of happier hours | A |
| A cricket dirging days that soon must die | J |
| Or did the ghost of Summer wander by | J |
