Living By Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDAE AFGH EI

Walking snow falling it is possibleA
to focus at various distancesB
in turn on separate flakes sharply engageC
the attention at several spatial pointsD
the nearer cold and more uncomfortableA
the farther distanced and almost pleasingE
-
Living time passing it is preferableA
to focus the memory in turn uponF
the more distant retrospects in orderG
that the present mind may retain its peaceH
-
Yet knowing that seeing and rememberingE
are both of course personal illusionsI
