Summer Dawn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEFDECFFF| Pray but one prayer for me 'twixt thy closed lips | A |
| Think but one thought of me up in the stars | B |
| The summer night waneth the morning light slips | A |
| Faint and gray 'twixt the leaves of the aspen betwixt the cloud bars | B |
| That are patiently waiting there for the dawn | C |
| Patient and colourless though Heaven's gold | D |
| Waits to float through them along with the sun | E |
| Far out in the meadows above the young corn | F |
| The heavy elms wait and restless and cold | D |
| The uneasy wind rises the roses are dun | E |
| Through the long twilight they pray for the dawn | C |
| Round the lone house in the midst of the corn | F |
| Speak but one word to me over the corn | F |
| Over the tender bow'd locks of the corn | F |
