The First Rain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGA HIJ K

The first rain reminds meA
Of the rising summer dustB
The rain doesn't remember the rain of yesteryearC
A year is a trained beast with no memoriesD
Soon you will again wear your harnessesE
Beautiful and embroidered to holdF
Sheer stockings youG
Mare and harnesser in one bodyA
-
The white panic of soft fleshH
In the panic of a sudden visionI
Of ancient saintsJ
