Reapers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB ACAC DDDD DEDE| Sun Tanned men and women toiling there together | A |
| Seven I count in all in yon field of wheat | B |
| Where the rich ripe ears in the harvest weather | A |
| Glow an orange gold through the sweltering heat | B |
| - | |
| Busy life is still sunk in brooding leisure | A |
| Birds have hushed their singing in the hushed tree tops | C |
| Not a single cloud mars the flawless azure | A |
| Not a shadow moves o'er the moveless crops | C |
| - | |
| In the grassy shallows that no breath is creasing | D |
| Chestnut coloured cows in the rushes dank | D |
| Stand like cows of bronze save when they flick the teasing | D |
| Flies with switch of tail from each quivering flank | D |
| - | |
| Nature takes a rest even her bees are sleeping | D |
| And the silent wood seems a church that's shut | E |
| But these human creatures cease not from their reaping | D |
| While the corn stands high waiting to be cut | E |
