The Heart Of Grief Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDDC EEFDDDF CCCGGGC DDHIIJH

YOU will not come againA
Along the deep banked laneB
To where the field and fold so long have missed youC
You know no more the wayD
To where so many a dayD
Before the world grew grayD
Your lover kissed youC
-
-
The wonders and delightsE
Of London days and nightsE
Hold fast a soul not made for pastoral pleasuresF
The scent of mignonetteD
Brings to you no regretD
No withered flowers lie yetD
Among your treasuresF
-
-
And I who long for youC
Sad and glad seasons throughC
Find my grief's heart in knowing grief will find youC
Some day you too will sighG
And lay a dead flower byG
And weep to see joy lieG
At last behind youC
-
-
What though the flower you hideD
With London wire be tiedD
What though the heart that broke your heart be rottenH
You too at last must missI
The smile the word the kissI
And know how hard it isJ
To be forgottenH
