Raptures Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCDED FGHGIJKJ

Sing for the sun your lyric larkA
Of twice ten thousand notesB
Sing for the moon you nightingalesB
Whose light shall kiss your throatsB
Sing sparrows for the soft warm rainC
To wet your feathers throughD
And when a rainbow's in the skyE
Sing you cuckoo CuckooD
-
Sing for your five blue eggs fond thrushF
By many a leaf concealedG
You starlings wrens and blackbirds singH
In every wood and fieldG
While I who fail to give my loveI
Long raptures twice as fineJ
Will for her beauty breathe this oneK
A sigh that's more divineJ
