Possibilities Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCACCCCCC| Where are the Poets unto whom belong | A |
| The Olympian heights whose singing shafts were sent | B |
| Straight to the mark and not from bows half bent | B |
| But with the utmost tension of the thong | A |
| Where are the stately argosies of song | A |
| Whose rushing keels made music as they went | B |
| Sailing in search of some new continent | C |
| With all sail set and steady winds and strong | A |
| Perhaps there lives some dreamy boy untaught | C |
| In schools some graduate of the field or street | C |
| Who shall become a master of the art | C |
| An admiral sailing the high seas of thought | C |
| Fearless and first and steering with his fleet | C |
| For lands not yet laid down in any chart | C |
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
