Approach Of Summer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFEFGGHow 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 |
