Almost Over Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| YOU say I should not think upon her now | A |
| But then I have stood beside her listening | B |
| And watched her rose breathed lips when she would sing | B |
| And I can scarcely yet imagine how | A |
| I ever should despise that stately brow | A |
| And flowering breast that is so pure a thing | B |
| Alas for all the weary blood running | B |
| When from the heart love strives to tear a vow | A |
| And yet perchance even as you tell me soon | C |
| Her spirit of my spirit will leave hold | D |
| And when I hear her tread I shall not blush | E |
| Doubly for love and shame But then the moon | C |
| Assuredly will rise and Sleep shall fold | D |
| Her hair round me and Death will whisper Hush | E |
