The Moon Spirit Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCBCBCDDEFEFGFOne night I lingered in the wood | A |
And saw a spirit form that stood | A |
Among the wildflowers Like the dew | B |
It twinkled partly wind and scent | C |
Then down a moonbeam there it blew | B |
And like a gleam of water went | C |
Or was it but a dream that grew | B |
Out of the wind and dew and scent | C |
Could I have seized it made it mine | D |
As poets have the thought divine | D |
Of Nature then I too might know | E |
Like them who once wild magic bound | F |
Into their rhymes of long ago | E |
Such ecstasy of earth around | F |
As never yet held heart before | G |
Or language for its beauty found | F |
