The Sleeping Beauty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBC DBDBDBThere was intoxication in the air | A |
The wind keen blowing from across the seas | B |
O'er leagues of new ploughed land and heathery leas | B |
Smelt of wild gorse whose gold flamed everywhere | A |
And undertone of song pulsed far and near | C |
The soaring larks filled heaven with ecstasies | B |
And like a living clock among the trees | B |
The shouting cuckoo struck the time of year | C |
- | |
For now the Sun had found the earth once more | D |
And woke the Sleeping Beauty with a kiss | B |
Who thrilled with light of love in every pore | D |
Opened her flower blue eyes and looked in his | B |
Then all things felt life fluttering at their core | D |
The world shook mystical in lambent bliss | B |
