In A Garden Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFE GFG

When the gardener has gone this gardenA
Looks wistful and seems waiting an eventB
It is so spruce a metaphor of EdenA
And even more so since the gardener wentB
-
Quietly godlike but of course he hadC
Not made me promise anything and ID
Had no one tempting me to make the badC
Choice Yet I still felt lost and wonder whyD
-
Even the beech tree from next door which sharesE
Its shadow with me seemed a kind of threatF
Everything was too neat and someone caresE
-
In the wrong way I need not have stood longG
Mocked by the smell of a mown lawn and yetF
I did Sickness for Eden was so strongG
