Firelight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACCA DEFDEF| Ten years together without yet a cloud | A |
| They seek each other's eyes at intervals | B |
| Of gratefulness to firelight and four walls | C |
| For love's obliteration of the crowd | A |
| Serenely and perennially endowed | A |
| And bowered as few may be their joy recalls | C |
| No snake no sword and over them there falls | C |
| The blessing of what neither says aloud | A |
| - | |
| Wiser for silence they were not so glad | D |
| Were she to read the graven tale of lines | E |
| On the wan face of one somewhere alone | F |
| Nor were they more content could he have had | D |
| Her thoughts a moment since of one who shines | E |
| Apart and would be hers if he had known | F |
