Rhyme Scheme: ABCADC AEFEF AGHIH AJBKLB

Only a DreamA
It floated thro'B
The sky of a lonely sleepC
As floats a gleamA
Athwart the BlueD
Of a golden clouded DeepC
-
Only a DreamA
I calmly sleptE
Meseems I called a nameF
I woke and waking I think I weptE
And called and called the sameF
-
Only a DreamA
Graves have no earsG
They give not back the deadH
They will not listen to the saddest tearsI
That ever may be shedH
-
Only a DreamA
Graves keep their ownJ
They have no hearts to hearB
But the loved will comeK
From their Heaven HomeL
To smile on the sleeper's tearB
