In An English Garden Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDDCEE| In this old garden fair I walk to day | A |
| Heart charmed with all the beauty of the scene | B |
| The rich luxuriant grasses' cooling green | B |
| The wall's environ ivy decked and gray | A |
| The waving branches with the wind at play | A |
| The slight and tremulous blooms that show between | B |
| Sweet all and yet my yearning heart doth lean | B |
| Toward Love's Egyptian fleshpots far away | A |
| - | |
| Beside the wall the slim Laburnum grows | C |
| And flings its golden flow'rs to every breeze | D |
| But e'en among such soothing sights as these | D |
| I pant and nurse my soul devouring woes | C |
| Of all the longings that our hearts wot of | E |
| There is no hunger like the want of love | E |
Paul Laurence Dunbar
