Memoranda Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A B C| THIS handful of grass brown says little This quarter mile field of it waving seeds ripening in the sun is a lake of luminous firefly lavender | A |
| - | |
| Prairie roses two of them climb down the sides of a road ditch In the clear pool they find their faces along stiff knives of grass and cat tails who speak and keep thoughts in beaver brown | B |
| - | |
| These gardens empty these fields only flower ghosts these yards with faces gone leaves speaking as feet and skirts in slow dances to slow winds I turn my head and say good by to no one who hears I pronounce a useless good by | C |
