A Mood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCA ADAEAAA FGHAHFIJAAAAAKLAMN| Bowed hearts that hold the saddest memories | A |
| Are the most beautiful and such make sweet | B |
| Light happy moods of alien natures which | C |
| Their sadness contacts and so sanctifies | A |
| - | |
| And such to me is an old gabled house | A |
| Deserted and neglected and unknown | D |
| Within the dreamy hollow of its hills | A |
| Dark cedared hills and fruitless orchards sear | E |
| With but its host of shrouded memories | A |
| Haunting its low and desolate rooms and halls | A |
| Its roomy hearths and cob webbed crevices | A |
| - | |
| Here in dim rainy noons I love to sit | F |
| And hear the running rain along the roof | G |
| The creak and crack of noises that are born | H |
| Of unseen and mysterious agencies | A |
| The dripping footfalls of the wind adown | H |
| Lone winding stairways massy banistered | F |
| A clapping door and then a sudden hush | I |
| That brings a pleasant terror stiffening through | J |
| The tingling veins and staring from the eyes | A |
| Then comes the running rain along the roof's | A |
| Rain rotten gables and on rain stained walls | A |
| Invokes vague images and memories | A |
| Of all its sometime lords and mistresses | A |
| Until the stale material will assume | K |
| All that's clairvoyant and the fine strung ear | L |
| In quaint far rooms or dusty corridors | A |
| Hear wrinkled ladies all beruffled trail | M |
| Long haughty silks miraculously stiff | N |
