A Kind Of Loss Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEBFG EH GIJK LM

Used together seasons books a piece of musicA
The keys teacups bread basket sheet and a bedB
A hope chest of words of gestures brought back used used upC
A household order maintained Said Done And always a head was thereD
I've fallen in love with winter with a Viennese septet wiht summerE
With Village maps a mountain nest a beach and a bedB
Kept a calender cult declared promises irrevocableF
bowed before something was pious to a nothingG
-
to a folded newspaper cold ashes the scribbled piece of paperE
fearless in religion for our bed was the churchH
-
From my lake view arose my inexhaustible paintingG
From my balcony I greeted entire peoples my neighborsI
By the chimney fire in safety my hair took on its deepest hueJ
The ringing at the door was the alarm for my joyK
-
It's not you I've lostL
but the worldM
