The Hillside Grave Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEFCG| Ten hundred deep the drifted daisies break | A |
| Here at the hill's foot on its top the wheat | B |
| Hangs meagre bearded and in vague retreat | B |
| The wisp like blooms of the moth mulleins shake | A |
| And where the wild pink drops a crimson flake | A |
| And morning glories like young lips make sweet | B |
| The shaded hush low in the honeyed heat | B |
| The wild bees hum as if afraid to wake | A |
| One sleeping there with no white stone to tell | C |
| The story of existence but the stem | D |
| Of one wild rose towering o'er brier and weed | E |
| Where all the day the wild birds requiem | F |
| Within whose shade the timid violets spell | C |
| An epitaph only the stars can read | G |
