Love's Nearness Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHIJK

I think of thee when golden sunbeams shimmerA
Across the seaB
And when the waves reflect the moon's pale glimmerA
I think of theeB
-
I see thy form when down the distant highwayC
The dust clouds riseD
In deepest night above the mountain by wayC
I see thine eyesD
-
I hear thee when the ocean tides returningE
Loudly rejoiceF
And on the lonely moor in stillness yearningE
I hear thy voiceF
-
I dwell with thee though thou art far removedG
Yet art thou nearH
The sun goes down the stars shine outI
BelovedJ
Ah wert thou hereK

Henry Van Dyke
