The Pool Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC ADED AFAF| By the pool that I see in my dreams dear love | A |
| I have sat with you time and again | B |
| And listened beneath the dank leaves dear love | A |
| To the sibilant sound of the rain | C |
| - | |
| And the pool it is silvery bright dear love | A |
| And as pure as the heart of a maid | D |
| As sparkling and dimpling it darkles and shines | E |
| In the depths of the heart of the glade | D |
| - | |
| But oh I 've a wish in my soul dear love | A |
| The wish of a dreamer it seems | F |
| That I might wash free of my sins dear love | A |
| In the pool that I see in my dreams | F |
