Meeting In The Woods Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAABA BCBBCB DEDDED BFBBFB GBHGBH| Through ferns and moss the path wound to | A |
| A hollow where the touchmenots | B |
| Swung horns of honey filled with dew | A |
| And where like foot prints violets blue | A |
| And bluets made sweet sapphire blots | B |
| 'Twas there that she had passed he knew | A |
| - | |
| The grass the very wilderness | B |
| On either side breathed rapture of | C |
| Her passage 'twas her hand or dress | B |
| That touched some tree a slight caress | B |
| That made the wood birds sing above | C |
| Her step that made the flowers up press | B |
| - | |
| He hurried till across his way | D |
| Foam footed bounding through the wood | E |
| A brook like some wild girl at play | D |
| Went laughing loud its roundelay | D |
| And there upon its bank she stood | E |
| A sunbeam clad in woodland gray | D |
| - | |
| And when she saw him all her face | B |
| Grew to a wildrose by the stream | F |
| And to his breast a moment's space | B |
| He gathered her and all the place | B |
| Seemed conscious of some happy dream | F |
| Come true to add to Earth its grace | B |
| - | |
| Some joy on which Heav'n was intent | G |
| For which God made the world the bliss | B |
| The love that raised her innocent | H |
| Pure face to his that smiling bent | G |
| And sealed confession with a kiss | B |
| Life needs no other testament | H |
