Lover's Quarrels Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABA CCDC EEF

JOIN hands my dear clasp long and close and fastA
Even this present we shall soon call pastA
And lay among the unforgotten daysB
Not the less loved because they could not lastA
-
-
Make haste to put our hasty words awayC
And hide them with dead leaves of yesterdayC
Cast them aside among forgotten thingsD
Keep the love warm that turns to green life's greyC
-
-
Each little thorn that pricks these present hoursE
Is sure to hide under our memories' flowersE
Till we shall say turning the dry wreath overF
'How sweet they were these dear dead days of ours '-
