Happiness Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCA DEDEDE| THIS perfect love can find no words to say | A |
| What words are left still sacred for our use | B |
| That have not suffered the sad world's abuse | B |
| And figure forth a gladness dimmed and gray | A |
| Let us be silent still since words convey | A |
| But shadowed images wherein we lose | C |
| The fulness of love's light our lips refuse | C |
| The fluent commonplace of yesterday | A |
| - | |
| - | |
| Then shall we hear beneath the brooding wing | D |
| Of silence what abiding voices sleep | E |
| The primal notes of nature that outring | D |
| Man's little noises warble he or weep | E |
| The song the morning stars together sing | D |
| The sound of deep that calleth unto deep | E |
