Bread Upon The Waters Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DDD DDE DDE DDF GGF A

So you are lost to meA
Ah you you ear of corn straight lyingB
What food is this for the darkly flyingB
Fowls of the AfterwardsC
-
White bread afloat on the watersD
Cast out by the hand that scattersD
Food untowardsD
-
Will you come back when the tide turnsD
After many days My heart yearnsD
To knowE
-
Will you return after many daysD
To say your say as a traveller saysD
More marvel than woeE
-
Drift then for the sightless birdsD
And the fish in shadow waved herdsD
To approach youF
-
Drift then bread cast outG
Drift lest I fall in doubtG
And reproach youF
-
For you are lost to meA
