Morning Hymn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EBFG HIJK LBMD

I am not dead Through slit and crackA
The piercing ray only glanced meB
And in the glow of self possessionC
I survive once more once againD
-
Through open shutters with waves surgesE
A blue that does not look blue to meB
Like a baby the air's nursed itselfF
Full of the sun's milk that melts downG
-
On the sea a steamer's whistleH
Blows like a rutting stagI
From mountains flashes a secret army'sJ
Visible invisible birthK
-
I am not dead I'd like to shout loudL
On this day of who gets mercyB
That today each of my sails fillsM
Themselves once more once againD
