Lover's Gifts Xliv: Where Is Heaven Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIEWhere is heaven you ask me my child the sages tell us it is | A |
beyond the limits of birth and death unswayed by the rhythm of day | B |
and night it is not of the earth | C |
But your poet knows that its eternal hunger is for time and | D |
space and it strives evermore to be born in the fruitful dust | E |
Heaven is fulfilled in your sweet body my child in your | F |
palpitating heart | G |
The sea is beating its drums in joy the flowers are a tiptoe | H |
to kiss you For heaven is born in you in the arms of the mother | I |
dust | E |
