Cold Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEDCE| A mist that froze beneath the moon and shook | A |
| Minutest frosty fire in the air | B |
| All night the wind was still as lonely Care | B |
| Who sighs before her shivering ingle nook | A |
| The face of Winter wore a crueler look | A |
| Than when he shakes the icicles from his hair | B |
| And in the boisterous pauses lets his stare | B |
| Freeze through the forest fettering bough and brook | A |
| He is the despot now who sits and dreams | C |
| Of Desolation and Despair and smiles | D |
| At Poverty who hath no place to rest | E |
| Who wanders o'er Life's snow made pathless miles | D |
| And sees the Home of Comfort's window gleams | C |
| And hugs her rag wrapped baby to her breast | E |
