A Dream Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGF HICI JKLM| I dreamt of autumn in the window's twilight | A |
| And you a tipsy jesters' throng amidst ' | B |
| And like a falcon having stooped to slaughter | C |
| My heart returned to settle on your wrist | D |
| - | |
| But time went on grew old and deaf Like thawing | E |
| Soft ice old silk decayed on easy chairs | F |
| A bloated sunset from the garden painted | G |
| The glass with bloody red September tears | F |
| - | |
| But time grew old and deaf And you the loud one | H |
| Quite suddenly were still This broke a spell | I |
| The dreaming ceased at once as though in answer | C |
| To an abruptly silenced bell | I |
| - | |
| And I awakened Dismal as the autumn | J |
| The dawn was dark A stronger wind arose | K |
| To chase the racing birchtrees on the skyline | L |
| As from a running cart the streams of straws | M |
