A Little Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDEEFFCC AAGGHH| When you my Dear are away away | A |
| How wearily goes the creeping day | A |
| A year drags after morning and night | B |
| Starts another year of candle light | B |
| O Pausing Sun and Lingering Moon | C |
| Grant me I beg of you this boon | C |
| - | |
| Whirl round the earth as never sun | D |
| Has his diurnal journey run | D |
| And Moon slip past the ladders of air | E |
| In a single flash while your streaming hair | E |
| Catches the stars and pulls them down | F |
| To shine on some slumbering Chinese town | F |
| O Kindly Sun Understanding Moon | C |
| Bring evening to crowd the footsteps of noon | C |
| - | |
| But when that long awaited day | A |
| Hangs ripe in the heavens your voyaging stay | A |
| Be morning O Sun with the lark in song | G |
| Be afternoon for ages long | G |
| And Moon let you and your lesser lights | H |
| Watch over a century of nights | H |
