In Springtime Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGDGDMy garden blazes brightly with the rose bush and the peach | A |
And the koil sings above it in the siris by the well | B |
From the creeper covered trellis comes the squirrel's chattering speech | A |
And the blue jay screams and flutters where the cheery sat bhai dwell | B |
But the rose has lost its fragrance and the koil's note is strange | C |
I am sick of endless sunshine sick of blossom burdened bough | D |
Give me back the leafless woodlands where the winds of Springtime range | C |
Give me back one day in England for it's Spring in England now | D |
- | |
Through the pines the gusts are booming o'er the brown fields blowing chill | E |
From the furrow of the ploughshare streams the fragrance of the loam | F |
And the hawk nests on the cliffside and the jackdaw in the hill | E |
And my heart is back in England 'mid the sights and sounds of Home | F |
But the garland of the sacrifice this wealth of rose and peach is | G |
Ah koil little koil singing on the siris bough | D |
In my ears the knell of exile your ceaseless bell like speech is | G |
Can you tell me aught of England or of Spring in England now | D |
