Holidays Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBADEFDEF| The holiest of all holidays are those | A |
| Kept by ourselves in silence and apart | B |
| The secret anniversaries of the heart | B |
| When the full river of feeling overflows | A |
| The happy days unclouded to their close | C |
| The sudden joys that out of darkness start | B |
| As flames from ashes swift desires that dart | B |
| Like swallows singing down each wind that blows | A |
| White as the gleam of a receding sail | D |
| White as a cloud that floats and fades in air | E |
| White as the whitest lily on a stream | F |
| These tender memories are a fairy tale | D |
| Of some enchanted land we know not where | E |
| But lovely as a landscape in a dream | F |
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
