Postponement Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAB CCC DDDB CCCB

SNOW BOUND in woodland a mournful wordA
Dropt now and then from the bill of a birdA
Reached me on wind wafts and thus I heardA
Wearily waitingB
-
I planned her a nest in a leafless treeC
But the passers eyed and twitted meC
And said 'How reckless a bird is heC
Cheerily mating '-
-
Fear filled I stayed me till summer tideD
In lewth of leaves to throne her brideD
But alas her love for me waned and diedD
Wearily waitingB
-
Ah had I been like some I seeC
Born to an evergreen nesting treeC
None had eyed and twitted meC
Cheerily matingB
