Dusk Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBAAB CDCDDCCD EFEFFEEF| Now is the healing quiet hour that fills | A |
| This gay green world with peace and grateful rest | B |
| Where lately over opalescent hills | A |
| The blood of slain Day reddened all the west | B |
| Now comes at Night's behest | B |
| A glow that over all the forest spills | A |
| As with the gold of promised daffodils | A |
| Of all hours this is best | B |
| - | |
| - | |
| It is time for thoughts of holy things | C |
| Of half forgotten friends and one's own folk | D |
| O'er all the garden scented sweetness clings | C |
| To mingle with the wood fire's drifting smoke | D |
| A bull frog's startled croak | D |
| Sounds from the gully where the last bird sings | C |
| His laggard vesper hymn with folded wings | C |
| And night spreads forth her cloak | D |
| - | |
| - | |
| Keeping their vigil where the great range yearns | E |
| Like rigid sentries stand the wise old gums | F |
| On blundering wings a night moth wheels and turns | E |
| And lumbers on mingling its drowsy hums | F |
| With that far roll of drums | F |
| Where the swift creek goes tumbling amidst the ferns | E |
| Now as the first star in the zenith burns | E |
| The dear soft darkness comes | F |
