My Youth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BABA ACAD| Oh my youth was hot and eager | A |
| And my heart was burning burning | B |
| And the present joy seemed meagre | A |
| Dwarfed by that perpetual yearning | B |
| - | |
| I was always madly asking | B |
| Ampler beauty keener pleasure | A |
| Had not wit enough for basking | B |
| In the sunshine rich with leisure | A |
| - | |
| Now with ripeness of October | A |
| I have reasoned and reflected | C |
| And I feed my soul grown sober | A |
| With the crumbs that I rejected | D |
