Killed In Action Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGG| Your ' Youth ' has fallen from its shelf | A |
| And you have fallen you yourself | A |
| They knocked a soldier on the head | B |
| I mourn the poet who fell dead | B |
| And yet I think it was by chance | C |
| By oversight you died in France | C |
| You were so poor an outward man | D |
| So small against your spirit's span | D |
| That Nature being tired awhile | E |
| Saw but your outward human pile | E |
| And Nature who would never let | F |
| A sun with light still in it set | F |
| Before you even reached your sky | G |
| In inadvertence let you die | G |
