The Path That Leads To Nowhere Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDE AFGFHIJI KBCBLMAM ANGNOPAP| There's a path that leads to Nowhere | A |
| In a meadow that I know | B |
| Where an inland island rises | C |
| And the stream is still and slow | B |
| There it wanders under willows | D |
| And beneath the silver green | E |
| Of the birches' silent shadows | D |
| Where the early violets lean | E |
| - | |
| Other pathways lead to Somewhere | A |
| But the one I love so well | F |
| Had no end and no beginning | G |
| Just the beauty of the dell | F |
| Just the windflowers and the lilies | H |
| Yellow striped as adder's tongue | I |
| Seem to satisfy my pathway | J |
| As it winds their sweets among | I |
| - | |
| There I go to meet the Springtime | K |
| When the meadow is aglow | B |
| Marigolds amid the marshes | C |
| And the stream is still and slow | B |
| There I find my fair oasis | L |
| And with care free feet I tread | M |
| For the pathway leads to Nowhere | A |
| And the blue is overhead | M |
| - | |
| All the ways that lead to Somewhere | A |
| Echo with the hurrying feet | N |
| Of the Struggling and the Striving | G |
| But the way I find so sweet | N |
| Bids me dream and bids me linger | O |
| Joy and Beauty are its goal | P |
| On the path that leads to Nowhere | A |
| I have sometimes found my soul | P |
