Acceptance Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCABC DEFGEH IJKILKBeside the doors of a keen lighted hall | A |
I paused and quite by chance | B |
I noticed Love | C |
Smiling and tall | A |
And then I heard the whirling dance | B |
And saw the dismal skies above | C |
- | |
She called to me to know her yet again | D |
And know her pale sad friend | E |
Solemn with tears | F |
Her friend was Pain | G |
I moved away but in the end | E |
Returned fearing the empty years | H |
- | |
And I who thought to scoff and had so planned | I |
I took Love s fevered arm | J |
And felt Pain s breath | K |
I took Love s hand | I |
And kissed its shining palm | L |
And saw beyond the silent face of Death | K |
