I Am, O Anxious One Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEFEGHEEI| I am O Anxious One Don't you hear my voice | A |
| surging forth with all my earthly feelings | B |
| They yearn so high that they have sprouted wings | B |
| and whitely fly in circles round your face | C |
| My soul dressed in silence rises up | D |
| and stands alone before you can't you see | E |
| don't you know that my prayer is growing ripe | F |
| upon your vision as upon a tree | E |
| If you are the dreamer I am what you dream | G |
| But when you want to wake I am your wish | H |
| and I grow strong with all magnificence | E |
| and turn myself into a star's vast silence | E |
| above the strange and distant city Time | I |
