An October Sunset Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCBABDBD| One moment the slim cloudflakes seem to lean | A |
| With their sad sunward faces aureoled | B |
| And longing lips set downward brightening | C |
| To take the last sweet hand kiss of the king | C |
| Gone down beyond the closing west acold | B |
| Paying no reverence to the slender queen | A |
| That like a curved olive leaf of gold | B |
| Hangs low in heaven rounded toward sun | D |
| Or the small stars that one by one unfold | B |
| Down the gray border of the night begun | D |
