Could call it a limerick, except that most of those are light, insulting, or funny. This isn't.

The blooming bough from Autumn's tomb escapes me; and how is a bough blown away except in strong wind. Maybe the crabtree of verse 3 could work in here. But is that a Crab tree? You bring the Autumn back, why not the tree?

The last two lines are great.
