To A Woman Passing By Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGH IJK LMN

Around me roared the nearly deafening streetA
Tall slim in mourning in majestic griefB
A woman passed me with a splendid handC
Lifting and swinging her festoon and hemD
-
Nimble and stately statuesque oflegE
I shaking like an addict from her eyeF
Black sky spawner of hurricanes drank inG
Sweetness that fascinates pleasure that killsH
-
One lightning flash then night Sweet fugitiveI
Whose glance has made me suddenly rebornJ
Will we not meet again this side of deathK
-
Far from this place too late never perhapsL
Neither one knowing where the other goesM
O you I might have loved as well you knowN
