After Long Years Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAABBBCCCDDDEEE| AND have I changed she asked and as she spoke | A |
| The old smile o'er her pale face bravely broke | A |
| And in her eyes dead worlds of pathos woke | A |
| Changed When I knew again the ghost of each | B |
| Remembered trick of gesture manner speech | B |
| And felt the beauty that no years could reach | B |
| I will go back with you without regret | C |
| For not one word you spoke I dare forget | C |
| And with each kiss of yours I tremble yet | C |
| No you have taken your way I took mine | D |
| A word may not our severed lives entwine | D |
| Nor will a kiss the shattered years combine | D |
| She put her arms around me held me near | E |
| Then forward to her lonely path and drear | E |
| She turned her sad wan face without a tear | E |
