Contrasts Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIHI see the tall church steeples | A |
They reach so far so far | B |
But the eyes of my heart see the world s great mart | C |
Where the starving people are | B |
- | |
I hear the church bells ringing | D |
Their chimes on the morning air | E |
But my soul s sad ear is hurt to hear | F |
The poor man s cry of despair | E |
- | |
Thicker and thicker the churches | G |
Nearer and nearer the sky | H |
But alack for their creeds while the poor man s needs | I |
Grow deeper as years roll by | H |
