A Love Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF AGAG AHAH| Reject me not if I should say to you | A |
| I do forget the sounding of your voice | B |
| I do forget your eyes that searching through | A |
| The mists perceive our marriage and rejoice | B |
| - | |
| Yet when the apple blossom opens wide | C |
| Under the pallid moonlight's fingering | D |
| I see your blanched face at my breast and hide | C |
| My eyes from diligent work malingering | D |
| - | |
| Ah then upon my bedroom I do draw | E |
| The blind to hide the garden where the moon | F |
| Enjoys the open blossoms as they straw | E |
| Their beauty for his taking boon for boon | F |
| - | |
| And I do lift my aching arms to you | A |
| And I do lift my anguished avid breast | G |
| And I do weep for very pain of you | A |
| And fling myself at the doors of sleep for rest | G |
| - | |
| And I do toss through the troubled night for you | A |
| Dreaming your yielded mouth is given to mine | H |
| Feeling your strong breast carry me on into | A |
| The peace where sleep is stronger even than wine | H |
