My Face Turned Upwards To The Sky Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGH IJKL MINOMy face turned upwards to the sky | A |
One summer night I lay upon some hay | B |
A lively close knit starry chorus | C |
Was flickering all around | D |
- | |
The mute earth nebulous and dreamlike | E |
Rushed off without a trace | F |
And I like Eden's first inhabitant | G |
Faced night's gaze all alone | H |
- | |
Was it I hurtling into midnight's depths | I |
Or was it crowds of stars that hurtled toward me | J |
It seemed as if a mighty palm | K |
Held me suspended over the abyss | L |
- | |
And with a heart confused and stunned | M |
I cast my gaze into the depths | I |
Whence sinking every moment deeper | N |
I never will return | O |
