From One Who Stays Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBDCEFGEFG| How empty seems the town now you are gone | A |
| A wilderness of sad streets where gaunt walls | B |
| Hide nothing to desire sunshine falls | B |
| Eery distorted as it long had shone | C |
| On white dead faces tombed in halls of stone | C |
| The whir of motors stricken through with calls | B |
| Of playing boys floats up at intervals | D |
| But all these noises blur to one long moan | C |
| What quest is worth pursuing And how strange | E |
| That other men still go accustomed ways | F |
| I hate their interest in the things they do | G |
| A spectre horde repeating without change | E |
| An old routine Alone I know the days | F |
| Are still born and the world stopped lacking you | G |
