April Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH JKLK| April half clad in flowers and showers | A |
| Walks like a blossom o'er the land | B |
| She smiles at May and laughing takes | C |
| The rain and sunshine hand in hand | B |
| - | |
| So gay the dancing of her feet | D |
| So like a garden her soft breath | E |
| So sweet the smile upon her face | F |
| She charms the very heart of death | E |
| - | |
| The young moon in a trance she holds | G |
| Captive in clouds of orchard bloom | H |
| She snaps her fingers at the grave | I |
| And laughs into the face of doom | H |
| - | |
| Yet in her gladness lurks a fear | J |
| In all her mirth there breathes a sigh | K |
| So soon her pretty flowers are gone | L |
| And ah she is too young to die | K |
