On The 100th Anniversary Of Anna Akhmatova Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDFGFHFThe fire and the page the hewed hairs and the swords | A |
The grains and the millstone the whispers and the clatter | B |
God saves all that especially the words | C |
Of love and pity as His only way to utter | B |
The harsh pulse pounds and the blood torrent whips | D |
The spade knocks evenly in them by gentle muse begotten | E |
For life is so unique they from the mortal lips | D |
Sound more clear than from the divine wad cotton | F |
Oh the great soul I'm bowing overseas | G |
To you who found them and that your smoldering portion | F |
Sleeping in the homeland which thanks to you at least | H |
Obtained the gift of speech in the deaf mute space ocean | F |
