A Song Of The Future Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABACCDDEEFF G| Sail fast sail fast | A |
| Ark of my hopes Ark of my dreams | B |
| Sweep lordly o'er the drowned Past | A |
| Fly glittering through the sun's strange beams | B |
| Sail fast sail fast | A |
| Breaths of new buds from off some drying lea | C |
| With news about the Future scent the sea | C |
| My brain is beating like the heart of Haste | D |
| I'll loose me a bird upon this Present waste | D |
| Go trembling song | E |
| And stay not long oh stay not long | E |
| Thou'rt only a gray and sober dove | F |
| But thine eye is faith and thy wing is love | F |
