Mockery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDCDCDGod I return to You on April days | A |
When along country roads You walk with me | B |
And my faith blossoms like the earliest tree | B |
That shames the bleak world with its yellow sprays | A |
My faith revives when through a rosy haze | A |
The clover sprinkled hills smile quietly | B |
Young winds uplift a bird's clean ecstasy | B |
For this O God my joyousness and praise | A |
- | |
But now the crowded streets and choking airs | C |
The squalid people bruised and tossed about | D |
These or the over brilliant thoroughfares | C |
The too loud laughter and the empty shout | D |
The mirth mad city tragic with its cares | C |
For this O God my silence and my doubt | D |
