June Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACC DEDEFG HIIHJJ KBKBLL| We thought that winter love would never end | A |
| That the dark year had slain the innocent May | B |
| Nor hoped that your soft hand this summer day | B |
| Would lie as now in mine beloved friend | A |
| And like some magic spring your dream deep eyes | C |
| Hold all the summer skies | C |
| - | |
| But lo the world again is mad with flowers | D |
| The long white silence spake small bird by bird | E |
| Blade after blade amid the song of showers | D |
| The grass stole back once more and there was heard | E |
| The ancient music of the vernal spheres | F |
| Half laughter and half tears | G |
| - | |
| Ah love and now too swiftly like some groom | H |
| Raining hot kisses on his bride's young mouth | I |
| The mad young year delirious with the South | I |
| Squanders his fairy treasure bloom on bloom | H |
| Too soon the wild rose hastens to be sweet | J |
| Too swift O June thy feet | J |
| - | |
| Tarry a little summer crowd not so | K |
| All glory and gladness in so brief a day | B |
| Teach all thy dancing flowers a step more slow | K |
| And bid thy wild musicians softlier play | B |
| O hast thou thought that like a madman spends | L |
| The longest summer ends | L |
