The Narrow Doors Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEAE AAFA FEAE EGHG

The Wide Door into SorrowA
Stands open night and dayB
With head held high and dancing feetC
I pass it on my wayB
-
I never tread within itD
I never turn to seeE
The Wide Door into SorrowA
It cannot frighten meE
-
The Narrow Doors to SorrowA
Are secret still and lowA
Swift tongues of dusk that spoil the sunF
Before I even knowA
-
My dancing feet are frozenF
I stare I can but seeE
The Narrow Doors to SorrowA
They stop the heart in meE
-
Oh stranger than my midnightsE
Of loneliness and strifeG
The Doors that let the dark leap inH
Across my sunny lifeG
