A Widow's Weeds Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDAAEEAAAAAAAA| A poor old Widow in her weeds | A |
| Sowed her garden with wild flower seeds | A |
| Not too shallow and not too deep | B |
| And down came April drip drip drip | C |
| Up shone May like gold and soon | D |
| Green as an arbour grew leafy June | D |
| And now all summer she sits and sews | A |
| Where willow herb comfrey bugloss blows | A |
| Teasle and pansy meadowsweet | E |
| Campion toadflax and rough hawksbit | E |
| Brown bee orchis and Peals of Bells | A |
| Clover burnet and thyme she smells | A |
| Like Oberon's meadows her garden is | A |
| Drowsy from dawn to dusk with bees | A |
| Weeps she never but sometimes sighs | A |
| And peeps at her garden with bright brown eyes | A |
| And all she has is all she needs | A |
| A poor Old Widow in her weeds | A |
