Where? Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDECC FGFGCCMy snowy eupatorium has dropped | A |
Its silver threads of petals in the night | B |
No signal told its blossoming had stopped | A |
Its seed films flutter silent ghostly white | B |
No answer stirs the shining air | C |
As I ask Where | C |
- | |
Beneath the glossy leaves of winter green | D |
Dead lilly bells lie low and in their place | E |
A rounded disk of pearly pink is seen | D |
Which tells not of the lily's fragrant grace | E |
No answer stirs the shining air | C |
As I ask Where | C |
- | |
This morning's sunrise does not show to me | F |
Seed film or fruit of my sweet yesterday | G |
Like falling flowers to realms I cannot see | F |
Its moments floated silently away | G |
No answer stirs the shining air | C |
As I ask Where | C |
