The Blind Man Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEFEGFHIHIJJ

Within a corner of this windowed roomA
He sits and seldom speaks and seldomB
movesC
Forever left within eternal gloomA
He thinks of those he left and those he lovesD
The clouds were his the colours of the dayE
The purple mists the deepest shades of blueF
The yellow flames the stars the milky wayE
And smiles and frowns and stretching moonG
light tooF
He knew the sun upon the eastern seaH
And watched it set behind a western hillI
He saw the depth of waters space the freeH
Ascent of birds All these he knew untilI
The bursting shell And now as life is longJ
He sits alone and whistles some old songJ
