Lover's Gifts Lviii: Things Throng And Laugh Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKHLGLM

Things throng and laugh loud in the sky the sands and dust danceA
and whirl like children Man's mind is aroused by their shouts hisB
thoughts long to be the playmates of thingsC
Our dreams drifting in the stream of the vague stretch theirD
arms to clutch the earth their efforts stiffen into bricks andE
stones and thus the city of man is builtF
Voices come swarming from the past seeking answers from theG
living moments Beats of their wings fill the air with tremulousH
shadows and sleepless thoughts in our minds leave their nests toI
take flight across the desert of dimness in the passionate thirstJ
for forms They are lampless pilgrims seeking the shore of lightK
to find themselves in things They will be lured into poets'sH
rhymes they will be housed in the towers of the town not yetL
planned they have their call to arms from the battle fields of theG
future they are bidden to join hands in the strife of peace yetL
to comeM
