Edmund Pollard Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRST UV

I would I had thrust my hands of fleshA
Into the disk flowers bee infestedB
Into the mirror like core of fireC
Of the light of life the sun of delightD
For what are anthers worth or petalsE
Or halo rays Mockeries shadowsF
Of the heart of the flower the central flameG
All is yours young passer byH
Enter the banquet room with the thoughtI
Don't sidle in as if you were doubtfulJ
Whether you're welcome the feast is yoursK
Nor take but a little refusing moreL
With a bashful Thank you when you're hungryM
Is your soul alive Then let it feedN
Leave no balconies where you can climbO
Nor milk white bosoms where you can restP
Nor golden heads with pillows to shareQ
Nor wine cups while the wine is sweetR
Nor ecstasies of body or soulS
You will die no doubt but die while livingT
In depths of azure rapt and matedU
Kissing the queen bee LifeV
