Possession Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBACACDBE

THERE is a cloud above the sunset hillA
That wends and makes no stayB
For its goal lies beyond the fiery westC
A lingering breath no calm can chase awayB
The onward labour of the wind's last willA
A flying foam that overleaps the crestC
Of the top wave and in possession stillA
A further reach of longing though at restC
From all the yearning yearsD
Together in the bosom of that dayB
Ye cling and with your kisses drink your tearsE

Dante Gabriel Rossetti
