Among Those Killed In The Dawn Raid Was A Man Aged A Hundred Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBCADEFGHIGIJ

When the morning was waking over the warA
He put on his clothes and stepped out and he diedB
The locks yawned loose and a blast blew them wideB
He dropped where he loved on the burst pavement stoneC
And the funeral grains of the slaughtered floorA
Tell his street on its back he stopped a sunD
And the craters of his eyes grew springshots and fireE
When all the keys shot from the locks and rangF
Dig no more for the chains of his grey haired heartG
The heavenly ambulance drawn by a woundH
Assembling waits for the spade's ring on the cageI
O keep his bones away from the common cartG
The morning is flying on the wings of his ageI
And a hundred storks perch on the sun's right handJ
