Midsummer Noon Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGHG IJIJ

At her window gazes over the elmsA
A girl she looks on the branching greenB
But her eyes possess unfathomed realmsA
Her young hand holds her dreaming chinC
-
Drifted the dazzling clouds ascendD
In indolent order vast and slowE
The great blue softly their shadows sendD
A clearness up from the wall belowE
-
An old man houseless leaning aloneF
By the tree girt fountain only heedsG
The fall of the spray in the shine of the sunH
And nothing possessing nothing needsG
-
The square is heavy with silent bloomI
The tardy wheels uncertain creepJ
Above in a narrow sunlit roomI
The widower watches his child asleepJ
