Her Beautiful Eyes Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDEECC FFGGCC| O her beautiful eyes they are as blue as the dew | A |
| On the violet's bloom when the morning is new | A |
| And the light of their love is the gleam of the sun | B |
| O'er the meadows of Spring where the quick shadows run | B |
| As the morn shirts the mists and the clouds from the skies | C |
| So I stand in the dawn of her beautiful eyes | C |
| - | |
| And her beautiful eyes are as midday to me | D |
| When the lily bell bends with the weight of the bee | D |
| And the throat of the thrush is a pulse in the heat | E |
| And the senses are drugged with the subtle and sweet | E |
| And delirious breaths of the air's lullabies | C |
| So I swoon in the noon of her beautiful eyes | C |
| - | |
| O her beautiful eyes they have smitten mine own | F |
| As a glory glanced down from the glare of The Throne | F |
| And I reel and I falter and fall as afar | G |
| Fell the shepherds that looked on the mystical Star | G |
| And yet dazed in the tidings that bade them arise | C |
| So I grope through the night of her beautiful eyes | C |
