A Garden In The Desert Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGFG HBHB IJIJ

So light and soft the days fallA
Like petals one by oneB
Down from yon tree whose flowers allA
Must vanish in the sunB
-
Like almond petals down dearC
Odorous rosy whiteD
Falling to our green world hereE
Off the thick boughs of nightD
-
One like another still liesF
Tomorrow is todayG
Always the buzzing bee fliesF
Who never flies awayG
-
Ever the same blue sky roundsH
Its chalice for the sunB
The mountains at the world's boundsH
Their purple chorals runB
-
And ever you and I friendI
Free of this mortal schemeJ
Look out beyond desire's endI
And dream the spacious dreamJ

Harriet Monroe
