Approach Of Summer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFEFGG| How shall I meet thee Summer wont to fill | A |
| My heart with gladness when thy pleasant tide | B |
| First came and on the Coomb's romantic side | B |
| Was heard the distant cuckoo's hollow bill | A |
| Fresh flowers shall fringe the margin of the stream | C |
| As with the songs of joyance and of hope | D |
| The hedge rows shall ring loud and on the slope | D |
| The poplars sparkle in the passing beam | C |
| The shrubs and laurels that I loved to tend | E |
| Thinking their May tide fragrance would delight | F |
| With many a peaceful charm thee my poor friend | E |
| Shall put forth their green shoots and cheer the sight | F |
| But I shall mark their hues with sadder eyes | G |
| And weep the more for one who in the cold earth lies | G |
