On The Sands Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGDGD| ALL the air was tranced and the sea was stilled | A |
| And we stood and dreamed of a world to be | B |
| When it seemed to me that our souls were thrilled | A |
| With a sudden sympathy | B |
| My life's long riddle at last I read | C |
| And the spirit face I had sought I knew | D |
| All the Past's far years to this hour had led | C |
| On the sands alone with you | D |
| And you you thought that the skies were fair | E |
| And such twilight peace you had seldom known | F |
| And you never guessed that a soul was there | E |
| That hungered for your own | F |
| You never knew there was just the lack | G |
| Of a passioned look that would thrill me through | D |
| But the night swept down with its shroud of black | G |
| And you never never knew | D |
