Sonnet For Christmas Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDEDEFGGFHHI saw our golden years on a black gale | A |
our time of love spilt in the furious dust | B |
'O we are winter caught and we must fail ' | C |
said the dark dream 'and time is overcast ' | C |
And woke into the night but you were there | D |
and small as seed in the wild dark we lay | E |
Small as seed under the gulfs of air | D |
is set the stubborn heart that waits for day | E |
I saw our love the root that holds the vine | F |
in the enduring earth that can reply | G |
'Nothing shall die unless for me it die | G |
Murder and hate and love alike are mine' | F |
and therefore fear no winter and no storm | H |
while in the knot of earth that root lies warm | H |
