A Canadian Snow Fall Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBAA CCDDEE FFGGHH IIJJAA EEKKAA| Come to the casement we ll watch the snow | A |
| Softly descending on earth below | A |
| Fairer and whiter than spotless down | B |
| Or the pearls that gleam in a monarch s crown | B |
| Clothing the earth in its robe s bright flow | A |
| Is it not lovely the pure white snow | A |
| - | |
| See as it falls o er the landscape wide | C |
| How kindly it seeks all blots to hide | C |
| Shrouding each black unsightly nook | D |
| The miry banks of the little brook | D |
| Robing bare branches in ermine white | E |
| Making all lovely spotless and bright | E |
| - | |
| In the farm yard see with what magic skill | F |
| Its marvels of beauty it works at will | F |
| The well house now is a fairy hall | G |
| And the rough rude fence is a marble wall | G |
| While gates and hillocks where barn fowl ranged | H |
| To ramparts and bastions now are changed | H |
| - | |
| How softly it falls nor breath nor sound | I |
| Though four feet high it should pile the ground | I |
| Though it change the face of wood and field | J |
| With skill that no mortal could ever wield | J |
| Yet as it falls not a murmur low | A |
| The noiseless silent white winged snow | A |
| - | |
| See in the rays of the morning bright | E |
| How it blushes beneath the sun s red light | E |
| How its diamond crystals gleam and shine | K |
| Clearer than those of Golconda s mine | K |
| Though the wintry winds may with anger blow | A |
| Surely all love the beautiful snow | A |
