The Wind And Stream Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAAA CACAAA DAEAAA FAFAAA GAGAAAilvery gleam | A |
Among the herbs that hung around | B |
The borders of the winding stream | A |
The pretty stream the placid stream | A |
The softly gliding bashful stream | A |
- | |
A breeze came wandering from the sky | C |
Light as the whispers of a dream | A |
He put the o'erhanging grasses by | C |
And softly stooped to kiss the stream | A |
The pretty stream the flattered stream | A |
The shy yet unreluctant stream | A |
- | |
The water as the wind passed o'er | D |
Shot upward many a glancing beam | A |
Dimpled and quivered more and more | E |
And tripped along a livelier stream | A |
The flattered stream the simpering stream | A |
The fond delighted silly stream | A |
- | |
Away the airy wanderer flew | F |
To where the fields with blossoms teem | A |
To sparkling springs and rivers blue | F |
And left alone that little stream | A |
The flattered stream the cheated stream | A |
The sad forsaken lonely stream | A |
- | |
That careless wind came never back | G |
He wanders yet the fields I deem | A |
But on its melancholy track | G |
Complaining went that little stream | A |
The cheated stream the hopeless stream | A |
The ever murmuring mourning stream | A |
