The Flower Of Mending Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: A BCDC EFGF HIJI KCLC MNON

To Eudora after I had had certain dire adventuresA
-
-
When Dragon fly would fix his wingsB
When Snail would patch his houseC
When moths have marred the overcoatD
Of tender Mister MouseC
-
The pretty creatures go with hasteE
To the sunlit blue grass hillsF
Where the Flower of Mending yields the waxG
And webs to help their illsF
-
The hour the coats are waxed and webbedH
They fall into a dreamI
And when they wake the ragged robesJ
Are joined without a seamI
-
My heart is but a dragon flyK
My heart is but a mouseC
My heart is but a haughty snailL
In a little stony houseC
-
Your hand was honey comb to healM
Your voice a web to bindN
You were a Mending Flower to meO
To cure my heart and mindN
