Unspoken Words Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE DGDGHIDI JKLKMNON PHQHDDND DDDDNRNR NNSNTNDDUnspoken words may thrill the heart | A |
Their meaning be more deeply felt | B |
Than all the glowing oratory | C |
Poured at the shrine where reason knelt | B |
The fairest pictures art conceives | D |
The noblest sentiments of mind | E |
The loveliest purest gems of thought | F |
Are those which never are defined | E |
- | |
The hand that paints the rainbow dyes | D |
Ne'er leaves a trace its skill to show | G |
The art that gilds the sunset skies | D |
And tints the flower we may not know | G |
Nor may we know the wizard power | H |
Which o'er our being wields control | I |
Nor how when silence seals the lips | D |
Heart speaks to heart and soul to soul | I |
- | |
We do not know from whence the life | J |
Imbued in crystal drop of rain | K |
Nor why when torn and trampled on | L |
The rose's fragrance will remain | K |
Nor know we why the tender tone | M |
Will linger when love's dream is fled | N |
Now why the smile we loved will live | O |
Although the face it wreathed will be dead | N |
- | |
Some strangely fascinating spell | P |
Steals o'er the heart in ethic's hour | H |
We know not what nor how nor why | Q |
Still must we own we feel its power | H |
A power that wakens slumbering dreams | D |
Intangible emotion swells | D |
That penetrates the soul's deep fount | N |
And greets the tide that from it wells | D |
- | |
It is not charm of form or face | D |
Nor is it long contact of years | D |
That wins this mutual soul response | D |
This spirit sympathy endears | D |
A theory by time engraved | N |
Fro life one mad impulse may sweep | R |
A glance may into being start | N |
Vain hopes that nevermore may sleep | R |
- | |
The quiet touch when hands are clasped | N |
Would seemingly no sense impart | N |
Yet may it wake a deathless theme | S |
And send it quivering to the heart | N |
And thus may kindred spirits feel | T |
Though tone of voice be never heard | N |
The sweet impassioned eloquence | D |
The magic of unspoken words | D |
