The Orchid Of Beauty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACBA DEDDEDBeauty thou orchid of immortal bloom | A |
Sprung from the fire and dust of perished spheres | B |
How art thou tall in these autumnal years | B |
With the red rain of immemorial doom | A |
And fragrant where the lesser suns illume | A |
For sustenance of Life's forgotten tears | C |
Ever thy splendor and thy light appears | B |
Like dawn from out the midnight of the tomb | A |
- | |
Colors and glints and glamors unrecalled | D |
Richly thy petals intricate revive | E |
Blossom whose roots are in eternity | D |
The faithful soul the sentience darkly thralled | D |
In dream and wonder evermore shall strive | E |
At Edens lost of time and memory | D |
