A Misty Day Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDE AAFFGGHH

Heart of my heart the day is chillA
The mist hangs low o'er the wooded hillA
The soft white mist and the heavy cloudB
The sun and the face of heaven shroudB
The birds are thick in the dripping treesC
That drop their pearls to the beggar breezeC
No songs are rife where songs are wontD
Each singer crouches in his hauntE
-
Heart of my heart the day is chillA
Whene'er thy loving voice is stillA
The cloud and mist hide the sky from meF
Whene'er thy face I cannot seeF
My thoughts fly back from the chill withoutG
My mind in the storm drops doubt on doubtG
No songs arise Without thee loveH
My soul sinks down like a frightened doveH

Paul Laurence Dunbar
