Song In A Minor Key Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDBEB FGHGIGEG| There's a place I know where the birds swing low | A |
| And wayward vines go roaming | B |
| Where the lilacs nod and a marble god | C |
| Is pale in scented gloaming | B |
| And at sunset there comes a lady fair | D |
| Whose eyes are deep with yearning | B |
| By an old old gate does the lady wait | E |
| Her own true love's returning | B |
| - | |
| But the days go by and the lilacs die | F |
| And trembling birds seek cover | G |
| Yet the lady stands with her long white hands | H |
| Held out to greet her lover | G |
| And it's there she'll stay till the shadowy day | I |
| A monument they grave her | G |
| She will always wait by the same old gate | E |
| The gate her true love gave her | G |
