Sonnet (oh For A Poet'for A Beacon Bright) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CCDEEDOh for a poet for a beacon bright | A |
To rift this changeless glimmer of dead gray | B |
To spirit back the Muses long astray | B |
And flush Parnassus with a newer light | A |
To put these little sonnet men to flight | A |
Who fashion in a shrewd mechanic way | B |
Songs without souls that flicker for a day | B |
To vanish in irrevocable night | A |
- | |
What does it mean this barren age of ours | C |
Here are the men the women and the flowers | C |
The seasons and the sunset as before | D |
What does it mean Shall not one bard arise | E |
To wrench one banner from the western skies | E |
And mark it with his name forevermore | D |
