The Castaways Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| The vivid grass with visible delight | A |
| Springing triumphant from the pregnant earth | B |
| The butterflies and sparrows in brief flight | A |
| Chirping and dancing for the season's birth | B |
| The dandelions and rare daffodils | C |
| That touch the deep stirred heart with hands of gold | D |
| The thrushes sending forth their joyous trills | C |
| Not these not these did I at first behold | D |
| But seated on the benches daubed with green | E |
| The castaways of life a few asleep | F |
| Some withered women desolate and mean | E |
| And over all life's shadows dark and deep | F |
| Moaning I turned away for misery | G |
| I have the strength to bear but not to see | G |
