To Flowers From Italy In Winter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAA CDCD EFEF GHGH

Sunned in the South and here to dayA
nbsp nbsp nbsp If all organic thingsB
Be sentient Flowers as some men sayA
nbsp nbsp nbsp What are your ponderingsA
-
How can you stay nor vanish quiteC
nbsp nbsp nbsp From this bleak spot of thornD
And birch and fir and frozen whiteC
nbsp nbsp nbsp Expanse of the forlornD
-
Frail luckless exiles hither broughtE
nbsp nbsp nbsp Your dust will not regainF
Old sunny haunts of Classic thoughtE
nbsp nbsp nbsp When you shall waste and waneF
-
But mix with alien earth be litG
nbsp nbsp nbsp With frigid Boreal flameH
And not a sign remain in itG
nbsp nbsp nbsp To tell men whence you cameH
