Evensong Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIJAKLK

Lay away the storyA
Though the theme is sweetB
There's a lack of something yetC
Leaves it incompleteB
There's a nameless yearningD
Strangely undefinedE
For a story sweeter stillF
Than the written kindE
-
Therefore read no longerG
I've no heart to hearH
But just something you make upI
O my mother dearJ
With your arms around meA
Hold me folded eyedK
Only let your voice go onL
I'll be satisfiedK
