Wine And Grief Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHGIJKLMWith heavy groans did I approach my friends | A |
Heavy as though the mountains I would move | B |
The flagon they were murdering they poured | C |
Into the cup wild eyed the grape's red blood | D |
No they killed not they breathed new life therein | E |
Then too in fiery rapture burned my veins | F |
But soon the fumes had fled In vain in vain | G |
Ye cannot fill the breach of the rent heart | H |
Ye crave a sensuous joy ye strive in vain | G |
To cheat with flames of passion my despair | I |
So when the sinking sun draws near to night | J |
The sky's bright cheeks fade 'neath those tresses black | K |
Ye laugh but silently the soul weeps on | L |
Ye cannot stifle her sincere lament | M |
