Her Thoughts And His Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFF| The gray of the sea and the gray of the sky | A |
| A glimpse of the moon like a half closed eye | A |
| The gleam on the waves and the light on the land | B |
| A thrill in my heart and my sweetheart's hand | B |
| - | |
| She turned from the sea with a woman's grace | C |
| And the light fell soft on her upturned face | C |
| And I thought of the flood tide of infinite bliss | D |
| That would flow to my heart from a single kiss | D |
| - | |
| But my sweetheart was shy so I dared not ask | E |
| For the boon so bravely I wore the mask | E |
| But into her face there came a flame | F |
| I wonder could she have been thinking the same | F |
