Alone In The Wind, On The Prairie Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFEGHIHJBKB| I know a seraph who has golden eyes | A |
| And hair of gold and body like the snow | B |
| Here in the wind I dream her unbound hair | C |
| Is blowing round me that desire's sweet glow | B |
| Has touched her pale keen face and willful mien | D |
| And though she steps as one in manner born | E |
| To tread the forests of fair Paradise | F |
| Dark memory's wood she chooses to adorn | E |
| Here with bowed head bashful with half desire | G |
| She glides into my yesterday's deep dream | H |
| All glowing by the misty ferny cliff | I |
| Beside the far forbidden thundering stream | H |
| Within my dream I shake with the old flood | J |
| I fear its going ere the spring days go | B |
| Yet pray the glory may have deathless years | K |
| And kiss her hair and sweet throat like the snow | B |
