Autumn Evening Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEBB| The Shadows flickering the daylight dying | A |
| And I upon the old red sofa lying | A |
| The great brown shadows leaping up the wall | B |
| The sparrows twittering and that is all | B |
| - | |
| I thought to send my soul to far off lands | C |
| Where fairies scamper on the windy sands | C |
| Or where the autumn rain comes drumming down | D |
| On huddled roofs in an enchanted town | D |
| - | |
| But O my sleepy soul it will not roam | E |
| It is too happy and too warm at home | E |
| With just the shadows leaping up the wall | B |
| The sparrows twittering and that is all | B |
