The Child-angel Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIBJCBHIThey clamour and fight they doubt and despair they know no end | A |
to their wrangling | B |
Let your life come amongst them like a flame of light my | C |
child unflickering and pure and delight them into silence | D |
They are cruel in their greed and their envy their words are like | E |
hidden knives thirsting for blood | F |
Go and stand amidst their scowling hearts my child and let | G |
your gentle eyes fall upon them like the forgiving peace of the | H |
evening over the strife of the day | I |
Let them see your face my child and thus know the meaning | B |
of all things let them love you and thus love each other | J |
Come and take your seat in the bosom of the limitless my | C |
child At sunrise open and raise your heart like a blossoming | B |
flower and at sunset bend your head and in silence complete the | H |
worship of the day | I |
