And Yet The Books Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJGKLMNG

And yet the books will be there on the shelves separate beingsA
That appeared once still wetB
As shining chestnuts under a tree in autumnC
And touched coddled began to liveD
In spite of fires on the horizon castles blown upE
Tribes on the march planets in motionF
We are they said even as their pagesG
Were being torn out or a buzzing flameH
Licked away their letters So much more durableI
Than we are whose frail warmthJ
Cools down with memory disperses perishesG
I imagine the earth when I am no moreK
Nothing happens no loss it s still a strange pageantL
Women s dresses dewy lilacs a song in the valleyM
Yet the books will be there on the shelves well bornN
Derived from people but also from radiance heightsG
