A Brief Love Letter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDECFGHDIJKLMNOPQR SATBB

My darling I have much to sayA
Where o precious one shall I beginB
All that is in you is princelyC
O you who makes of my words through their meaningD
Cocoons of silkE
These are my songs and this is meC
This short book contains usF
Tomorrow when I return its pagesG
A lamp will lamentH
A bed will singD
Its letters from longing will turn greenI
Its commas be on the verge of flightJ
Do not say why did this youthK
Speak of me to the winding road and the streamL
The almond tree and the tulipM
So that the world escorts me wherever I goN
Why did he sing these songsO
Now there is no starP
That is not perfumed with my fragranceQ
Tomorrow people will see me in his verseR
A mouth the taste of wine close cropped hairS
Ignore what people sayA
You will be great only through my great loveT
What would the world have been if we had not beenB
If your eyes had not been what would the world have beenB
