Behind The Lines Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD

The wind of evening cried along the darkening treesA
Along the darkening trees heavy with ancient painB
Heavy with ancient pain from faded centuriesA
From faded centuries O foolish thought and vainB
-
O foolish thought and vain to think the wind could knowC
To think the wind could know the griefs of men who diedD
The griefs of men who died and mouldered long agoC
And mouldered long ago the wind of evening criedD
