April Rain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBAC DEDEEDD FEFEEFFThe April rain the April rain | A |
Comes slanting down in fitful showers | B |
Then from the furrow shoots the grain | A |
And banks are fledged with nestling flowers | B |
And in grey shaw and woodland bowers | B |
The cuckoo through the April rain | A |
Calls once again | C |
- | |
The April sun the April sun | D |
Glints through the rain in fitful splendour | E |
And in grey shaw and woodland dun | D |
The little leaves spring forth and tender | E |
Their infant hands yet weak and slender | E |
For warmth towards the April sun | D |
One after one | D |
- | |
And between shower and shine hath birth | F |
The rainbow's evanescent glory | E |
Heaven's light that breaks on mists of earth | F |
Frail symbol of our human story | E |
It flowers through showers where looming hoary | E |
The rain clouds flash with April mirth | F |
Like Life on earth | F |
