He Had His Dream Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEE FFGGHHIIEE| He had his dream and all through life | A |
| Worked up to it through toil and strife | A |
| Afloat fore'er before his eyes | B |
| It colored for him all his skies | B |
| The storm cloud dark | C |
| Above his bark | C |
| The calm and listless vault of blue | D |
| Took on its hopeful hue | D |
| It tinctured every passing beam | E |
| He had his dream | E |
| - | |
| He labored hard and failed at last | F |
| His sails too weak to bear the blast | F |
| The raging tempests tore away | G |
| And sent his beating bark astray | G |
| But what cared he | H |
| For wind or sea | H |
| He said The tempest will be short | I |
| My bark will come to port | I |
| He saw through every cloud a gleam | E |
| He had his dream | E |
