Borderland Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABABACDCDEFFE| Am I waking am I sleeping | A |
| As the first faint dawn comes creeping | A |
| Thro' the pane I am aware | B |
| Of an unseen presence hovering | A |
| Round above in the dusky air | B |
| A downy bird with an odorous wing | A |
| That fans my forehead and sheds perfume | C |
| As sweet as love as soft as death | D |
| Drowsy slow through the summer gloom | C |
| My heart in some dream rapture saith | D |
| It is she Half in a swoon | E |
| I spread my arms in slow delight | F |
| O prolong prolong the night | F |
| For the nights are short in June | E |
