She Sat Upon The Floor... Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDEFGCHIJKGLMShe sat upon the floor | A |
Looking through a pile of letters | B |
She took them up and tossed them | C |
Like so many cold ashes | D |
She took the familiar pages | D |
And gazed at them strangely | E |
The way souls look from above | F |
At their discarded bodies | G |
O how much life was in them | C |
Life irrevocably lived | H |
O how many bitter moments | I |
How much love and joy now dead | J |
I stood silently aside | K |
Ready to fall on my knees | G |
And I grew terribly sad | L |
As if in the presence of a dear ghost | M |
