An Autumn Night Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAABCCCB DDDBEEEB FFFFGGGH| Some things are good on Autumn nights | A |
| When with the storm the forest fights | A |
| And in the room the heaped hearth lights | A |
| Old fashioned press and rafter | B |
| Plump chestnuts hissing in the heat | C |
| A mug of cider sharp and sweet | C |
| And at your side a face petite | C |
| With lips of laughter | B |
| - | |
| Upon the roof the rolling rain | D |
| And tapping at the window pane | D |
| The wind that seems a witch's cane | D |
| That summons spells together | B |
| A hand within your own awhile | E |
| A mouth reflecting back your smile | E |
| And eyes two stars whose beams exile | E |
| All thoughts of weather | B |
| - | |
| And while the wind lulls still to sit | F |
| And watch her fire lit needles flit | F |
| A knitting and to feel her knit | F |
| Your very heartstrings in it | F |
| Then when the old clock ticks 'tis late | G |
| To rise and at the door to wait | G |
| Two words or at the garden gate | G |
| A kissing minute | H |
