The Spring-it Had Simply Been You Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEFD GHDI ADAJK IIDI IDLI DMIM| The spring it had simply been you | A |
| And so to a certain extent | B |
| The summer but autumn this scandalous blue | A |
| Of wallpaper Rubbish and felt | C |
| - | |
| They lead an old horse to the knacker's yard | D |
| His wistful short breathing nostrils | E |
| Are listening wet camomile and moss | F |
| Or maybe a whiff of horsemeat | D |
| - | |
| Imbibe with your lips and the blaze of your eyes | G |
| The transparent days' tear stained vagueness | H |
| Like the drift of an empty bottle of scent | D |
| Its nostalgic lingering fragrance | I |
| - | |
| To sleep not to argue Despairingly | A |
| To sleep Not to open the window | D |
| Where last summer in frenzy July | A |
| Was burning and glowing like jasper | J |
| And melting the glass and was pairing | K |
| - | |
| The same crimson dragonflies | I |
| Which now on their nuptial beds | I |
| Are deader and more transparent | D |
| Than crumbled dry cigarettes | I |
| - | |
| How sleepy and chilly are windows | I |
| In the twilight hours of frost | D |
| Dry vitriol oil At the bottom | L |
| A gnat and expired wasps | I |
| - | |
| How draughty the north is How ruffled | D |
| And sulky O whirlwind drive | M |
| Feel search all the crannies and hollows | I |
| Find me my song alive | M |
