To My Mother Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDDCDCEE| Because I feel that in the Heavens above | A |
| The angels whispering to one another | B |
| Can find among their burning terms of love | A |
| None so devotional as that of Mother | B |
| Therefore by that dear name I long have called you | C |
| You who are more than mother unto me | D |
| And fill my heart of hearts where Death installed you | C |
| In setting my Virginia's spirit free | D |
| My mother my own mother who died early | D |
| Was but the mother of myself but you | C |
| Are mother to the one I loved so dearly | D |
| And thus are dearer than the mother I knew | C |
| By that infinity with which my wife | E |
| Was dearer to my soul than its soul life | E |
