All That I Was I Am Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDAEAFGHIAA| Hateful it seems now yet was I not happy | A |
| Starved of the things I loved I did not know | B |
| I loved them and was happy lacking them | C |
| If bitterness comes now and that is hell | D |
| It is when I forget that I was happy | A |
| Accusing Fate that sits and nods and laughs | E |
| Because I was not born a bird or tree | A |
| Let accusation sleep lest God's own finger | F |
| Point angry from the cloud in which He hides | G |
| Who may regret what was since it has made | H |
| Himself himself All that I was I am | I |
| And the old childish joy now lives in me | A |
| At sight of a green field or a green tree | A |
