Little Things Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDAAEEFFGG| There's nothing very beautiful and nothing very gay | A |
| About the rush of faces in the town by day | A |
| But a light tan cow in a pale green mead | B |
| That is very beautiful beautiful indeed | B |
| And the soft March wind and the low March mist | C |
| Are better than kisses in a dark street kissed | C |
| The fragrance of the forest when it wakes at dawn | D |
| The fragrance of a trim green village lawn | D |
| The hearing of the murmur of the rain at play | A |
| These things are beautiful beautiful as day | A |
| And I shan't stand waiting for love or scorn | E |
| When the feast is laid for a day new born | E |
| Oh better let the little things I loved when little | F |
| Return when the heart finds the great things brittle | F |
| And better is a temple made of bark and thong | G |
| Than a tall stone temple that may stand too long | G |
