Two O'clock Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGG

Night after night goes by and clocks still chimeA
And stars are changing pattrns in the darkB
And watches tick and over puissant TimeA
Benumbs the eager brain The dogs that barkB
The trains that roar and rattle in the nightC
The very cats that prowl all quiet findD
And leave the darkness empty silent quiteC
Sleep comes to chloroform the fretting mindD
-
So all things end and what is left at lastE
Some scribbled sonnets tossed upon the floorF
A memory of easy days gone pastE
A run down watch a pipe some clothes we woreF
And in the darkened room I lean to knowG
How her dreamless breath doth pause and flowG
