Son, Remember Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| I laid beside thy gate am Lazarus | A |
| See me or see me not I still am there | B |
| Hungry and thirsty sore and sick and bare | B |
| Dog comforted and crumbs solicitous | A |
| While thou in all thy ways art sumptuous | A |
| Daintily clothed with dainties for thy fare | B |
| Thus a world's wonder thou art quit of care | B |
| And be I seen or not seen I am thus | A |
| One day a worm for thee a worm for me | C |
| With my worm angel songs and trumpet burst | D |
| And plenitude an end of all desire | E |
| But what for thee alas but what for thee | C |
| Fire and an unextinguishable thirst | D |
| Thirst in an unextinguishable fire | E |
