Only Until This Cigarette Is Ended Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCDOnly until this cigarette is ended | A |
A little moment at the end of all | B |
While on the floor the quiet ashes fall | B |
And in the firelight to a lance extended | A |
Bizarrely with the jazzing music blended | A |
The broken shadow dances on the wall | B |
I will permit my memory to recall | B |
The vision of you by all my dreams attended | A |
And then adieu farewell the dream is done | C |
Yours is a face of which I can forget | D |
The color and the features every one | C |
The words not ever and the smiles not yet | D |
But in your day this moment is the sun | C |
Upon a hill after the sun has set | D |
