A Day Dream Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDECC FGFGHI JEJEKK LMLMEE NONOHIMy eyes make pictures when they're shut | A |
I see a fountain large and fair | B |
A Willow and a ruined Hut | A |
And thee and me and Mary there | B |
O Mary make thy gentle lap our pillow | C |
Bend o'er us like a bower my beautiful green Willow | C |
- | |
A wild rose roofs the ruined shed | D |
And that and summer well agree | E |
And lo where Mary leans her head | D |
Two dear names carved upon the tree | E |
And Mary's tears they are not tears of sorrow | C |
Our sister and our friend will both be here to morrow | C |
- | |
'Twas Day But now few large and bright | F |
The stars are round the crescent moon | G |
And now it is a dark warm Night | F |
The balmiest of the month of June | G |
A glow worm fallen and on the marge remounting | H |
Shines and its shadow shines fit stars for our sweet fountain | I |
- | |
O ever ever be thou blest | J |
For dearly Asra love I thee | E |
This brooding warmth across my breast | J |
This depth of tranquil bliss ah me | E |
Fount Tree and Shed are gone I know not whither | K |
But in one quiet room we three are still together | K |
- | |
The shadows dance upon the wall | L |
By the still dancing fire flames made | M |
And now they slumber moveless all | L |
And now they melt to one deep shade | M |
But not from me shall this mild darkness steal thee | E |
I dream thee with mine eyes and at my heart I feel thee | E |
- | |
Thine eyelash on my cheek doth play | N |
'Tis Mary's hand upon my brow | O |
But let me check this tender lay | N |
Which none may hear but she and thou | O |
Like the still hive at quiet midnight humming | H |
Murmur it to yourselves ye two beloved women | I |
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
