October: A Sonnet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFFEGG| Ay thou art welcome heaven's delicious breath | A |
| When woods begin to wear the crimson leaf | B |
| And suns grow meek and the meek suns grow brief | B |
| And the year smiles as it draws near its death | A |
| Wind of the sunny south oh still delay | C |
| In the gay woods and in the golden air | D |
| Like to a good old age released from care | D |
| Journeying in long serenity away | C |
| In such a bright late quiet would that I | E |
| Might wear out life like thee mid bowers and brooks | F |
| And dearer yet the sunshine of kind looks | F |
| And music of kind voices ever nigh | E |
| And when my last sand twinkled in the glass | G |
| Pass silently from men as thou dost pass | G |
William Cullen Bryant
