The Wall Between Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDF GHGI JKJK LMLM NJNJ

The wall between is grown so thinA
That whoso peers may seeB
A flutter of rose a living greenC
Like new leaves on a treeB
-
The wall's now gotten many a chinkD
Where whoso leans may hearE
The feet of them who pass to drinkD
All at a well clearF
-
The people go the people flowG
T'other side o' the wallH
With silken rustle and laughter lowG
As to a festivalI
-
Come mother and wife and piteous brideJ
The wall's nigh broken throughK
And there be some the other sideJ
That peep and pry for youK
-
So thin has grown like a precious stoneL
The wall no eye might passM
You may have vision of your ownL
As through a crystal glassM
-
And if that sight should you delightN
Your tears will all be driedJ
For souls so bright that walk in whiteN
Dear bliss on the other sideJ
