The Little Green Orchard Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDDAB EBDDDFEB ABGGHIAB ABJJKLABSome one is always sitting there | A |
In the little green orchard | B |
Even when the sun is high | C |
In noon's unclouded sky | C |
And faintly droning goes | D |
The bee from rose to rose | D |
Some one in shadow is sitting there | A |
In the little green orchard | B |
- | |
Yes and when twilight is falling softly | E |
In the little green orchard | B |
When the grey dew distils | D |
And every flower cup fills | D |
When the last blackbird says | D |
What what and goes her way s sh | F |
I have heard voices calling softly | E |
In the little green orchard | B |
- | |
Not that I am afraid of being there | A |
In the little green orchard | B |
Why when the moon's been bright | G |
Shedding her lonesome light | G |
And moths like ghosties come | H |
And the horned snail leaves home | I |
I've sat there whispering and listening there | A |
In the little green orchard | B |
- | |
Only it's strange to be feeling there | A |
In the little green orchard | B |
Whether you paint or draw | J |
Dig hammer chop or saw | J |
When you are most alone | K |
All but the silence gone | L |
Some one is waiting and watching there | A |
In the little green orchard | B |
