Dead Sea Fruit Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEG HIHI| All things have power to hold us back | A |
| Our very hopes build up a wall | B |
| Of doubt whose shadow stretches black | A |
| O'er all | B |
| - | |
| The dreams that helped us once become | C |
| Dread disappointments that oppose | D |
| Dead eyes to ours and lips made dumb | C |
| With woes | D |
| - | |
| The thoughts that opened doors before | E |
| Within the mind's house hide away | F |
| Discouragement hath locked each door | E |
| For aye | G |
| - | |
| Come loss more frequently than gain | H |
| And failure than success until | I |
| The spirit's struggle to attain | H |
| Is still | I |
