The Two Swans Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDDEFFGHHIJJJHH| There's a big park just close to where we live | A |
| Trees in a row | B |
| And shaggy grass whereon the dead leaves blow | B |
| And in the middle round a great lagoon | C |
| The fair yachts sail | D |
| In loveliness that makes the water pale | D |
| Last night I went to walk along the road | E |
| Beside the park | F |
| And feel the kisses of the wintry dark | F |
| It's the best place to watch the evening come | G |
| For mists are there | H |
| And lights and shadows and the lake is fair | H |
| And last night looking up I saw two swans | I |
| Fly overhead | J |
| With long black necks and their white wings outspread | J |
| Above the houses citywards they went | J |
| An arrowy pair | H |
| In secret white and black and dark and fair | H |
