December, 1919 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB ADED AFGHLast night I heard your voice mother | A |
The words you sang to me | B |
When I a little barefoot boy | C |
Knelt down against your knee | B |
- | |
And tears gushed from my heart mother | A |
And passed beyond its wall | D |
But though the fountain reached my throat | E |
The drops refused to fall | D |
- | |
'Tis ten years since you died mother | A |
Just ten dark years of pain | F |
And oh I only wish that I | G |
Could weep just once again | H |
