Realization Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EAEA| I smiled with skeptic mocking where they told me you were dead | A |
| You of the airy laughter and lightly twinkling feet | B |
| They tell a dream that haunted a chill gray dawn I said | A |
| Death could not touch or claim a thing so vivid and so sweet | B |
| - | |
| I looked upon you coffined amid your virgin flowers | C |
| But even that white silence could bring me no belief | D |
| She lies in maiden sleep I said and in the youngling hours | C |
| Her sealed dark eyes will open to scorn our foolish grief | D |
| - | |
| But when I went at moonrise to our ancient trysting place | E |
| And oh the wind was keening in the fir boughs overhead | A |
| And you came never to me with your little gypsy face | E |
| Your lips and hands of welcome I knew that you were dead | A |
