Dawn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABACDADA ECECFAGA

O tender first cold flush of roseA
O budded dawn wake dreamilyB
Your dim lips as your lids uncloseA
Murmur your own sad threnodyC
as the soft and frail lights breakD
Upon your eyelids and your eyesA
Wider and wider grow and wakeD
The old pale glory diesA
-
And then as sleep lies down to sleepE
And all her dreams lie somewhere deadC
The iron shepherd leads his sheepE
To pastures parched whose green is shedC
Still frail dawn still in your hairF
And your cold eyes and sad sweet lipsA
The ghosts of all the dreams are themG
To fade like passing shipsA
