Frost-flowers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDAAEEFF AAGGHHGGIIJJ| Over my window in pencillings white | A |
| Stealthily traced in the silence of night | A |
| Traced with a pencil as viewless as air | B |
| By an artist unseen when the star beams were fair | B |
| Came wonderful pictures so life like and true | C |
| That I'm filled with amaze as the marvel I view | C |
| - | |
| Like and yet unlike the things I have seen | D |
| Feathery ferns in the forest depths green | D |
| Delicate mosses that hide from the light | A |
| Snow drops and lilies and hyacinths white | A |
| Fringes and feathers and half opened flowers | E |
| Closely twined branches of dim cedar bowers | E |
| Strange that one hand should so deftly combine | F |
| Such numberless charms in so quaint a design | F |
| - | |
| O wondrous creations of silence and night | A |
| I watch as ye fade in the clear morning light | A |
| As ye melt into tear drops and trickle away | G |
| From the keen searching eyes of inquisitive Day | G |
| While I gaze ye are gone and I see you depart | H |
| With a wistful regret lying deep in my heart | H |
| A longing for something that will not decay | G |
| Or melt like these frost flowers in tear drops away | G |
| A passionate yearning of heart for that shore | I |
| Where beauty unfading shall last evermore | I |
| Nor e'en as we gaze from our vision be lost | J |
| Like the beautiful things that are pencilled in frost | J |
