Julia Miller Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDBEFGHIJEKL

We quarreled that morningA
For he was sixty five and I was thirtyB
And I was nervous and heavy with the childC
Whose birth I dreadedD
I thought over the last letter written meB
By that estranged young soulE
Whose betrayal of me I had concealedF
By marrying the old manG
Then I took morphine and sat down to readH
Across the blackness that came over my eyesI
I see the flickering light of these words even nowJ
And Jesus said unto him VerilyE
I say unto thee To day thou shaltK
Be with me in paradiseL
