In The Harbour: Memories Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| Oft I remember those I have known | A |
| In other days to whom my heart was lead | B |
| As by a magnet and who are not dead | B |
| But absent and their memories overgrown | A |
| With other thoughts and troubles of my own | A |
| As graves with grasses are and at their head | B |
| The stone with moss and lichens so o'er spread | B |
| Nothing is legible but the name alone | A |
| And is it so with them After long years | C |
| Do they remember me in the same way | D |
| And is the memory pleasant as to me | E |
| I fear to ask yet wherefore are my fears | C |
| Pleasures like flowers may wither and decay | D |
| And yet the root perennial may be | E |
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
