Have You Forgotten? Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDEHave you forgotten how one Summer night | A |
We wandered forth together with the moon | B |
While warm winds hummed to us a sleepy tune | B |
Have you forgotten how you praised both light | A |
And darkness not embarrassed yet not quite | A |
At ease and how you said the glare of noon | B |
Less pleased you than the stars but very soon | B |
You blushed and seemed to doubt if you were right | A |
We wandered far and took no note of time | C |
Till on the air there came the distant call | D |
Of church bells we turned hastily and yet | E |
Ere we reached home sounded a second chime | C |
But what have you indeed forgotten all | D |
Ah how then is it I cannot forget | E |
