There May Be Chaos Still Around The World Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABBADEEDFEThere may be chaos still around the world | A |
This little world that in my thinking lies | B |
For mine own bosom is the paradise | C |
Where all my life's fair visions are unfurled | A |
Within my nature's shell I slumber curled | A |
Unmindful of the changing outer skies | B |
Where now perchance some new born Eros flies | B |
Or some old Cronos from his throne is hurled | A |
I heed them not or if the subtle night | D |
Haunt me with deities I never saw | E |
I soon mine eyelid's drowsy curtain draw | E |
To hide their myriad faces from my sight | D |
They threat in vain the whirlwind cannot awe | F |
A happy snow flake dancing in the flaw | E |
