March Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFGF HIHI BDBD BJBJ BBBB| The stormy March is come at last | A |
| With wind and cloud and changing skies | B |
| I hear the rushing of the blast | A |
| That through the snowy valley flies | B |
| - | |
| Ah passing few are they who speak | C |
| Wild stormy month in praise of thee | D |
| Yet though thy winds are loud and bleak | C |
| Thou art a welcome month to me | D |
| - | |
| For thou to northern lands again | E |
| The glad and glorious sun dost bring | F |
| And thou hast joined the gentle train | G |
| And wear'st the gentle name of Spring | F |
| - | |
| And in thy reign of blast and storm | H |
| Smiles many a long bright sunny day | I |
| When the changed winds are soft and warm | H |
| And heaven puts on the blue of May | I |
| - | |
| Then sing aloud the gushing rills | B |
| And the full springs from frost set free | D |
| That brightly leaping down the hills | B |
| Are just set out to meet the sea | D |
| - | |
| The year's departing beauty hides | B |
| Of wintry storms the sullen threat | J |
| But in thy sternest frown abides | B |
| A look of kindly promise yet | J |
| - | |
| Thou bring'st the hope of those calm skies | B |
| And that soft time of sunny showers | B |
| When the wide bloom on earth that lies | B |
| Seems of a brighter world than ours | B |
