Here Is A Wound That Never Will Heal, I Know Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDAEFEGEFHere is a wound that never will heal I know | A |
Being wrought not of a dearness and a death | B |
But of a love turned ashes and the breath | B |
Gone out of beauty never again will grow | A |
The grass on that scarred acre though I sow | C |
Young seed there yearly and the sky bequeath | D |
Its friendly weathers down far Underneath | D |
Shall be such bitterness of an old woe | A |
That April should be shattered by a gust | E |
That August should be levelled by a rain | F |
I can endure and that the lifted dust | E |
Of man should settle to the earth again | G |
But that a dream can die will be a thrust | E |
Between my ribs forever of hot pain | F |
