Daffodils Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFF| Ho You there selling daffodils along the windy street | A |
| Poor drooping dusty daffodils but oh so Summer sweet | A |
| Green stems that stab with loveliness rich petal cups to hold | B |
| The wine of Spring to lips that cling like bees about their gold | B |
| - | |
| What price to you for daffodils I'll give what price you please | C |
| For light and love and memory lie leaf by leaf with these | C |
| And if I bought all Sydney Town I could not hope to buy | D |
| The wealth you bring of everything that goes with open sky | D |
| - | |
| My money for your daffodils why do you thank me so | E |
| If I have paid a reckless price take up my gift and go | E |
| And from the golden garden beds where gold the sunbeams shine | F |
| Bring in more flowers to light the hours for lover hearts like mine | F |
