When Paganini Plays Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAAB CDCCCD EF GBGGB HIHHJ EF| Dawn laughs the bow and we straight see the sky | A |
| Crimson and golden and gray | B |
| See the rosy cloudlets go drifting by | A |
| And the sheen on the lark as soaring high | A |
| He carols to greet the day | B |
| - | |
| Fast moves the bow o'er the wonderful strings | C |
| We feel the joy in the air | D |
| 'Tis alive with the glory of growing things | C |
| With wild honeysuckle that creeps and clings | C |
| Rose of the briar bush queen of the springs | C |
| Anemones frail and fair | D |
| - | |
| We listen and whisper with laughter low | E |
| It voices rare gladness that ancient bow | F |
| - | |
| Then sad as the plaint of a child at night | G |
| A child aweary with play | B |
| The falling of shadows a lost delight | G |
| The moaning of watchers counting the flight | G |
| Of hours 'twixt the dark and day | B |
| - | |
| It echoes the cry of a broken heart | H |
| It grieves o'er a might have been | I |
| It holds all the passionate tears that start | H |
| When our heaven and our earth drift far apart | H |
| And the way lies dark between | J |
| - | |
| It stills all our laughter and whispers low | E |
| 'Tis heart strings it plays on that ancient bow | F |
