A Love Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF AGAG AHAHReject 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 |
