Colour Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCBBDDBBThere's colour in the woodlands as far as eye can reach | A |
Pale gold upon the elm tree and bronze upon the beech | A |
To witch the world with beauty a hundred hues ally | B |
But bonniest is the scarlet when a Whip rides by | B |
On towers of brown and crimson on roofs of royal gold | C |
The banners of the autumn their splendid tints unfold | C |
And no one will their wonder their magic lure deny | B |
Yet dearer is the scarlet when a Whip rides by | B |
Ah Bright September woodlands your magic only means | D |
That summer s life is ebbing on the bed your beauty screens | D |
Not all your painted pennons on all your towers so high | B |
Can match one patch of scarlet when a whip rides by | B |
