Harbor Dawn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAABBCC DDDEEDD CCCFFGG| There's a hush and stillness calm and deep | A |
| For the waves have wooed all the winds to sleep | A |
| In the shadow of headlands bold and steep | A |
| But some gracious spirit has taken the cup | B |
| Of the crystal sky and filled it up | B |
| With rosy wine and in it afar | C |
| Has dissolved the pearl of the morning star | C |
| - | |
| The girdling hills with the night mist cold | D |
| In purple raiment are hooded and stoled | D |
| And smit on the brows with fire and gold | D |
| And in the distance the wide white sea | E |
| Is a thing of glamor and wizardry | E |
| With its wild heart lulled to a passing rest | D |
| And the sunrise cradled upon its breast | D |
| - | |
| With the first red sunlight on mast and spar | C |
| A ship is sailing beyond the bar | C |
| Bound to a land that is fair and far | C |
| And those who wait and those who go | F |
| Are brave and hopeful for well they know | F |
| Fortune and favor the ship shall win | G |
| That crosses the bar when the dawn comes in | G |
