Morning Joy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EFGG HHIJ| At night the wide and level stretch of wold | A |
| Which at high noon had basked in quiet gold | A |
| Far as the eye could see was ghostly white | B |
| Dark was the night save for the snow's weird light | B |
| - | |
| I drew the shades far down crept into bed | C |
| Hearing the cold wind moaning overhead | C |
| Through the sad pines my soul catching its pain | D |
| Went sorrowing with it across the plain | D |
| - | |
| At dawn behold the pall of night was gone | E |
| Save where a few shrubs melancholy lone | F |
| Detained a fragile shadow Golden lipped | G |
| The laughing grasses heaven's sweet wine sipped | G |
| - | |
| The sun rose smiling o'er the river's breast | H |
| And my soul by his happy spirit blest | H |
| Soared like a bird to greet him in the sky | I |
| And drew out of his heart Eternity | J |
