Winter Midnight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFDGHIJFKLHHMNB| After our fond reiterate farewells | A |
| In the shadow of the wall between the lamplight and the moon | B |
| I left you and returned and torn from you once more | C |
| Departed loath and laggardly | D |
| Into the icy luminous immense white night | E |
| But though my every step was a gulf dividing us | F |
| On ways forlorn and chill | D |
| I was not cold nor sorrowful nor alone | G |
| Nor friended by regret | H |
| For love went with me like the warmth of a happy room | I |
| And soft enfolding arms | J |
| And the widening space between us | F |
| Was somehow one with love | K |
| And evermore I knew | L |
| That your heart and my heart were islanded | H |
| In the self same throbbing sea of happiness and light | H |
| And washed by the self same waves of vibrant memory | M |
| Like shores of halcyon summer | N |
| Where halcyon perfumes mount beneath a burning moon | B |
