Dream River Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHGHWIND SILVERED willows hedge the stream | A |
And all within is hushed and cool | B |
The water in an endless dream | A |
Goes sliding down from pool to pool | B |
And every pool a sapphire is | C |
From shadowy deep to sunlit edge | D |
Ribboned around with irises | C |
And cleft with emerald spears of sedge | D |
- | |
O every morn the winds are stilled | E |
The sunlight falls in amber bars | F |
O every night the pools are filled | E |
With silver brede of shaken stars | F |
O every morn the sparrow flings | G |
His elfin trills athwart the hush | H |
And here unseen at eve there sings | G |
One crystal throated hermit thrush | H |
