Can I Forget? Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBCDEBDEBCan I forget how LOVE once led the ways | A |
Of our two lives together joining them | B |
How every hour was his anadem | B |
And every day a tablet in his praise | A |
Can I forget how in his garden place | C |
Among the purple roses stem to stem | B |
We heard the rumour of his robe's bright hem | B |
And saw the aureate radiance of his face | C |
Though I behold my soul's high dreams down hurled | D |
And FALSEHOOD sit where Truth once towered white | E |
And in LOVE'S place usurping lust and shame | B |
Though flowers be dead within the winter world | D |
Are flowers not there and starless though the night | E |
Are stars not there eternal and the same | B |
