Madonna With Two Angels Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEFGGHHIJKKLL MNUnder the sky without a stain | A |
The long ripe rippling of the grain | A |
Light broadcast from the golden oats | B |
Over the blackberry fences floats | B |
Madonna sits in a cedar chair | C |
Tranquillized by the warm still air | C |
One of the angels asleep on her knee | D |
Under the shade of an apple tree | D |
The other angel holds a doll | E |
Covered warm in a tiny shawl | F |
The toy is supposed to be fast asleep | G |
As the sister angel in dimples deep | G |
The grave sweet charm on the baby face | H |
Repeats the look of maturer grace | H |
That hovers about Madonna's eyes | I |
One of the heavenly mysteries | J |
From far ethereal latitudes | K |
Where neither doubt nor trouble intrudes | K |
Ponder here in the orchard nest | L |
On the truth of life made manifest | L |
The struggle and effort was all to prove | M |
That the best of the world is home and love | N |
