The Passing Year Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDCDCDNo breath of wind stirs in the painted leaves | A |
The meadows are as stirless as the sky | B |
Like a Saint's halo golden vapours lie | B |
Above the restful valley's garnered sheaves | A |
The journeying Sun like one who fondly grieves | A |
Above the hills seems loitering with a sigh | B |
As loth to bid the fruitful earth good bye | B |
On these hushed hours of luminous autumn eves | A |
- | |
There is a pathos in his softening glow | C |
Which like a benediction seems to hover | D |
O'er the tranced earth ere he must sink below | C |
And leave her widowed of her radiant Lover | D |
A frost bound sleeper in a shroud of snow | C |
While winter winds howl a wild dirge above her | D |
