Indian Summer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGHThe old grey year is near his term in sooth | A |
And now with backward eye and soft laid palm | B |
Awakens to a golden dream of youth | A |
A second childhood lovely and most calm | B |
And the smooth hour about his misty head | C |
An awning of enchanted splendour weaves | D |
Of maples amber purple and rose red | C |
And droop limbed elms down dropping golden leaves | D |
With still half fallen lids he sits and dreams | E |
Far in a hollow of the sunlit wood | F |
Lulled by the murmur of thin threading streams | E |
Nor sees the polar armies overflood | F |
The darkening barriers of the hills nor hears | G |
The north wind ringing with a thousand spears | H |
