Indian Summer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGH| The 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 |
