Desespoir Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDA EFGGFE| The seasons send their ruin as they go | A |
| For in the spring the narciss shows its head | B |
| Nor withers till the rose has flamed to red | B |
| And in the autumn purple violets blow | A |
| And the slim crocus stirs the winter snow | A |
| Wherefore yon leafless trees will bloom again | C |
| And this grey land grow green with summer rain | D |
| And send up cowslips for some boy to mow | A |
| - | |
| But what of life whose bitter hungry sea | E |
| Flows at our heels and gloom of sunless night | F |
| Covers the days which never more return | G |
| Ambition love and all the thoughts that burn | G |
| We lose too soon and only find delight | F |
| In withered husks of some dead memory | E |
