The Ploughboy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBAB CACAACA DEDEEDEA lilac mist maizes warm the hills | A |
And silvery through it threads a stream | B |
The redbird's cadence throbs and thrills | A |
The jaybirds scream | B |
The bluets' stars begin to gleam | B |
And 'mid them whispering with the rills | A |
The morning hours dream | B |
- | |
The ploughboy Spring drives out his plough | C |
A robin's whistle on his lips | A |
And as he goes with lifted brow | C |
And snaps and whips | A |
His lash of wind a sunbeam tips | A |
The wildflowers laugh and on the bough | C |
The blossom skips | A |
- | |
The scent of winter mellowed loam | D |
And greenwood buds is blown from him | E |
As blithe he takes his young way home | D |
Large strong of limb | E |
Along the hilltop's sunset brim | E |
Whistling the first star white as foam | D |
In his hat's blue rim | E |
