Dawn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBBCCB DEDEEDDE FGFGGFFHere in soft darkness where the whole night thro' | A |
Dreamless my quiet garden slumbered well | B |
Night's soothing fingers all adrip with dew | C |
Crept in and out weaving a mystic spell | B |
O'er wilting bud and bell | B |
Now with deft touches deepening tints anew | C |
Now lifting up some languid suppliant who | C |
Had wooed the sun too well | B |

- | |
In the grey twilight tall trees seem to yawn | D |
And waking stretch their mighty limbs on high | E |
A small bird cheeps and silver in the dawn | D |
The jewelled wattles to a soft wind sigh | E |
Hard etched against the sky | E |
The timbered hill tops stand forth boldly drawn | D |
A sunbeam laughing trips across the lawn | D |
And smiling day is nigh | E |
- | |
- | |
The kindly offices of night are done | F |
A grey thrush carols forth his matin hymn | G |
Then proud triumphant of a new day won | F |
The magpie's trumpet tops a lofty limb | G |
By the pool's mirrored brim | G |
The drowsing daisies open one by one | F |
'Wake brothers wake Here comes our lord the Sun | F |
Awake and worship him ' | - |
