Silver Filigree Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF CGCG| The icicles wreathing | A |
| On trees in festoon | B |
| Swing swayed to our breathing | A |
| They're made of the moon | B |
| - | |
| She's a pale waxen taper | C |
| And these seem to drip | D |
| Transparent as paper | C |
| From the flame of her tip | D |
| - | |
| Molten smoking a little | E |
| Into crystal they pass | F |
| Falling freezing to brittle | E |
| And delicate glass | F |
| - | |
| Each a sharp pointed flower | C |
| Each a brief stalactite | G |
| Which hangs for an hour | C |
| In the blue cave of night | G |
