Sowing Seed Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDB EFGHF IJKDJ LMNOP HQRSQ

As my hand dropt a seedA
In the dibbled mouldB
And my mind hurried onwardC
To picture the miracleD
June should unfoldB
-
On a sudden before meE
Hanging its headF
With black petalsG
Rotting and taintedH
Stood a flower deadF
-
As if all the world's hopeI
Were rotting thereJ
A thing to weep forK
Ripe for burialD
Veined with despairJ
-
Yet I cannot preventL
My ignorant heartM
From trust that is deeperN
Than fear can fathomO
Or hope desertP
-
The small twy bladedH
Shoot will thrustQ
To brave all hazardsR
The seed is sownS
And in Earth I trustQ
