The Lonely Dreamer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDE FFAAHe lives his lonely life and when he dies | A |
A thousand hearts maybe will utter sighs | A |
Because they liked his songs and now their bird | B |
Sleeps with his head beneath his wing unheard | B |
- | |
But what kind hand will tend his grave and bring | C |
Those blossoms there of which he used to sing | C |
Who'll kiss his mound and wish the time would come | D |
To lie with him inside that silent tomb | E |
- | |
And who'll forget the dreamer's skill and shed | F |
A tear because a loving heart is dead | F |
Heigh ho for gossip then and common sighs | A |
And let his death bring tears in no one's eyes | A |
