The Teacher Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BABCDCDEEFFA A| A Cross is slanting tween two withered trees | A |
| - | |
| I saw him first in peace amid a crowd | B |
| Of streets nor dreamed him ever one of these | A |
| So wistfully he mused so shyly proud | B |
| So chalk besmeared he walked his weary pace | C |
| A space went and on an early day | D |
| Within the trench I saw a half known face | C |
| Awake with wonder a child lived heart at play | D |
| With dreamed romance a Drake keen eye ashine | E |
| For newer worlds A thunder tore the line | E |
| A shell burst He smiled as Sidney smiled | F |
| And fell There came the crying of a child | F |
| A wave of little hands a soft breeze | A |
| - | |
| The cross is slanting tween two withered trees | A |
