My Little March Girl Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDD EECCFFDD GGHHIIDD| Come to the pane draw the curtain apart | A |
| There she is passing the girl of my heart | A |
| See where she walks like a queen in the street | B |
| Weather defying calm placid and sweet | B |
| Tripping along with impetuous grace | C |
| Joy of her life beaming out of her face | C |
| Tresses all truant like curl upon curl | D |
| Wind blown and rosy my little March girl | D |
| - | |
| Hint of the violet's delicate bloom | E |
| Hint of the rose's pervading perfume | E |
| How can the wind help from kissing her face | C |
| Wrapping her round in his stormy embrace | C |
| But still serenely she laughs at his rout | F |
| She is the victor who wins in the bout | F |
| So may life's passions about her soul swirl | D |
| Leaving it placid my little March girl | D |
| - | |
| What self possession looks out of her eyes | G |
| What are the wild winds and what are the skies | G |
| Frowning and glooming when brimming with life | H |
| Cometh the little maid ripe for the strife | H |
| Ah Wind and bah Wind what might have you now | I |
| What can you do with that innocent brow | I |
| Blow Wind and grow Wind and eddy and swirl | D |
| But bring her to me Wind my little March girl | D |
