Morning, Noon And Night Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDEEFF GGCCHH| When morning shows her first faint flush | A |
| I think of the tender blush | A |
| That crept so gently to your cheek | B |
| When first my love I dared to speak | B |
| How in your glance a dawning ray | C |
| Gave promise of love's perfect day | C |
| - | |
| When in the ardent breath of noon | D |
| The roses with passion swoon | D |
| There steals upon me from the air | E |
| The scent that lurked within your hair | E |
| I touch your hand I clasp your form | F |
| Again your lips are close and warm | F |
| - | |
| When comes the night with beauteous skies | G |
| I think of your tear dimmed eyes | G |
| Their mute entreaty that I stay | C |
| Although your lips sent me away | C |
| And then falls memory's bitter blight | H |
| And dark so dark becomes the night | H |
