Conrad Siever Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNIOPNot in that wasted garden | A |
Where bodies are drawn into grass | B |
That feeds no flocks and into evergreens | C |
That bear no fruit | D |
There where along the shaded walks | E |
Vain sighs are heard | F |
And vainer dreams are dreamed | G |
Of close communion with departed souls | H |
But here under the apple tree | I |
I loved and watched and pruned | J |
With gnarled hands | K |
In the long long years | L |
Here under the roots of this northern spy | M |
To move in the chemic change and circle of life | N |
Into the soil and into the flesh of the tree | I |
And into the living epitaphs | O |
Of redder apples | P |
