Silence Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH IJIJ| Since I lost you I am silence haunted | A |
| Sounds wave their little wings | B |
| A moment then in weariness settle | C |
| On the flood that soundless swings | B |
| - | |
| Whether the people in the street | D |
| Like pattering ripples go by | E |
| Or whether the theatre sighs and sighs | F |
| With a loud hoarse sigh | E |
| - | |
| Or the wind shakes a ravel of light | G |
| Over the dead black river | H |
| Or night s last echoing | I |
| Makes the daybreak shiver | H |
| - | |
| I feel the silence waiting | I |
| To take them all up again | J |
| In its vast completeness enfolding | I |
| The sound of men | J |
