Let Them Go Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABBC DEDEEF DGDGGH DIDIIE

Let the dream go Are there not other dreamsA
In vastness of clouds hid from thy sightB
That yet shall gild with beautiful gold gleamsA
And shoot the shadows through and through with lightB
What matters one lost vision of the nightB
Let the dream goC
-
Let the hope set Are there not other hopesD
That yet shall rise like new stars in thy skyE
Not long a soul in sullen darkness gropesD
Before some light is lent it from on highE
What folly to think happiness gone byE
Let the hope setF
-
Let the joy fade Are there not other joysD
Like frost bound bulbs that yet shall start and bloomG
Severe must be the winter that destroysD
The hardy roots locked in their silent tombG
What cares the earth for her brief time of gloomG
Let the joy fadeH
-
Let the love die Are there not other lovesD
As beautiful and full of sweet unrestI
Flying through space like snowy pinioned dovesD
They yet shall come and nestle in thy breastI
And thou shalt say of each Lo this is bestI
Let the love dieE
