My Dreams, My Works, Must Wait Till After Hell Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLM| I hold my honey and I store my bread | A |
| In little jars and cabinets of my will | B |
| I label clearly and each latch and lid | C |
| I bid Be firm till I return from hell | D |
| I am very hungry I am incomplete | E |
| And none can give me any word but Wait | F |
| The puny light I keep my eyes pointed in | G |
| Hoping that when the devil days of my hurt | H |
| Drag out to their last dregs and I resume | I |
| On such legs as are left me in such heart | J |
| As I can manage remember to go home | K |
| My taste will not have turned insensitive | L |
| To honey and bread old purity could love | M |
