Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFH IJIJ DKDL MNMWhen blood root blooms and trillium flowers | A |
Unclasp their stars to sun and rain | B |
My heart strikes hands with winds and showers | A |
And wanders in the woods again | C |
- | |
O urging impulse born of spring | D |
That makes glad April of my soul | E |
No bird however wild of wing | D |
Is more impatient of control | E |
- | |
Impetuous of pulse it beats | F |
Within my blood and bears me hence | G |
Above the housetops and the streets | F |
I hear its happy eloquence | H |
- | |
It tells me all that I would know | I |
Of birds and buds of blooms and bees | J |
I seem to hear the blossoms blow | I |
And leaves unfolding on the trees | J |
- | |
I seem to hear the blue bells ring | D |
Faint purple peals of fragrance and | K |
The honey throated poppies fling | D |
Their golden laughter o'er the land | L |
- | |
It calls to me it sings to me | M |
I hear its far voice night and day | N |
I can not choose but go when tree | M |
And flower clamor 'Come away ' | - |
