In The Gold Room - A Harmony Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBA CDCDDC ECECCE| Her ivory hands on the ivory keys | A |
| Strayed in a fitful fantasy | B |
| Like the silver gleam when the poplar trees | A |
| Rustle their pale leaves listlessly | B |
| Or the drifting foam of a restless sea | B |
| When the waves show their teeth in the flying breeze | A |
| - | |
| Her gold hair fell on the wall of gold | C |
| Like the delicate gossamer tangles spun | D |
| On the burnished disk of the marigold | C |
| Or the sunflower turning to meet the sun | D |
| When the gloom of the dark blue night is done | D |
| And the spear of the lily is aureoled | C |
| - | |
| And her sweet red lips on these lips of mine | E |
| Burned like the ruby fire set | C |
| In the swinging lamp of a crimson shrine | E |
| Or the bleeding wounds of the pomegranate | C |
| Or the heart of the lotus drenched and wet | C |
| With the spilt out blood of the rose red wine | E |
