Winter-thought Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADDA EBEBEBThe wind swayed daisies that on every side | A |
Throng the wide fields in whispering companies | B |
Serene and gently smiling like the eyes | C |
Of tender children long beatified | A |
The delicate thought wrapped buttercups that glide | A |
Like sparks of fire above the wavering grass | D |
And swing and toss with all the airs that pass | D |
Yet seem so peaceful so preoccupied | A |
- | |
These are the emblems of pure pleasures flown | E |
I scarce can think of pleasure without these | B |
Even to dream of them is to disown | E |
The cold forlorn midwinter reveries | B |
Lulled with the perfume of old hopes new blown | E |
No longer dreams but dear realities | B |
