The Shadow On The Blind Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFE| Last night I walked among the lamps that gleamed | A |
| And saw a shadow on a window blind | B |
| A moving shadow and the picture seemed | A |
| To call some scene to mind | B |
| - | |
| I looked again a dark form to and fro | C |
| Swayed softly as to music full of rest | D |
| Bent low bent lower Still I did not know | C |
| And then at last I guessed | D |
| - | |
| And through the night came all old memories flocking | E |
| White memories like the snowflakes round me whirled | F |
| 'All's well ' I said 'The mothers still sit rocking | E |
| The cradles of the world ' | - |
