Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADAEFGHIGJAre you fleeing from Love because of a single humiliation | A |
What do you know of Love except the name | B |
Love has a hundred forms of pride and disdain | C |
and is gained by a hundred means of persuasion | A |
Since Love is loyal it purchases one who is loyal | D |
it has no interest in a disloyal companion | A |
The human being resembles a tree its root is a covenant with God | E |
that root must be cherished with all one's might | F |
A weak covenant is a rotten root without grace or fruit | G |
Though the boughs and leaves of the date palm are green | H |
greenness brings no benefit if the root is corrupt | I |
If a branch is without green leaves yet has a good root | G |
a hundred leaves will put forth their hands in the end | J |
