Lydia Humphrey Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEAFGAHHIJ| Back and forth back and forth to and from the church | A |
| With my Bible under my arm | B |
| Till I was gray and old | C |
| Unwedded alone in the world | D |
| Finding brothers and sisters in the congregation | E |
| And children in the church | A |
| I know they laughed and thought me queer | F |
| I knew of the eagle souls that flew high in the sunlight | G |
| Above the spire of the church and laughed at the church | A |
| Disdaining me not seeing me | H |
| But if the high air was sweet to them sweet was the church to me | H |
| It was the vision vision vision of the poets | I |
| Democratized | J |
