I Shall Come Back Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA AAAACC| I shall come back without fanfaronade | A |
| Of wailing wind and graveyard panoply | B |
| But trembling slip from cool Eternity | B |
| A mild and most bewildered little shade | A |
| I shall not make sepulchral midnight raid | A |
| But softly come where I had longed to be | B |
| In April twilight's unsung melody | B |
| And I not you shall be the one afraid | A |
| - | |
| Strange that from lovely dreamings of the dead | A |
| I shall come back to you who hurt me most | A |
| You may not feel my hand upon your head | A |
| I'll be so new and inexpert a ghost | A |
| Perhaps you will not know that I am near | C |
| And that will break my ghostly heart my dear | C |
