The End Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADDEFGHIJDJKFLMNI OPQR| It is time for me to go mother I am going | A |
| When in the paling darkness of the lonely dawn you stretch out | B |
| your arms for your baby in the bed I shall say Baby is not | C |
| here mother I am going | A |
| I shall become a delicate draught of air and caress you and | D |
| I shall be ripples in the water when you bathe and kiss you and | D |
| kiss you again | E |
| In the gusty night when the rain patters on the leaves you | F |
| will hear my whisper in your bed and my laughter will flash with | G |
| the lightning through the open window into your room | H |
| If you lie awake thinking of your baby till late into the | I |
| night I shall sing to you from the stars Sleep mother sleep | J |
| One the straying moonbeams I shall steal over your bed and | D |
| lie upon your bosom while you sleep | J |
| I shall become a dream and through the little opening of your | K |
| eyelids I shall slip into the depths of your sleep and when you | F |
| wake up and look round startled like a twinkling firefly I shall | L |
| flit out into the darkness | M |
| When on the great festival of puja the neighbours' children | N |
| come and play about the house I shall melt into the music of the | I |
| flute and throb in your heart all day | O |
| Dear auntie will come with puja presents and will ask Where | P |
| is our baby sister Mother you will tell her softly He is in | Q |
| the pupils of my eyes he is in my body and in my soul | R |
