I Thought, Before My Sunlit Twentieth Year Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGDDHAIFH G

I thought before my sunlit twentieth yearA
That I knew Love and Death that goes with itB
And my young broken heart in little songsC
Dew like I poured and waited for my endD
Wildly and waited being then nineteenE
I walked a little longer on my wayF
Alive 'gainst expectation and desireG
And being then past twenty I beheldD
The face of all the faces of the worldD
Dewily opening on its stem for meH
Ah so it seemed and each succeeding yearA
Thus hath some woman blossom of the divineI
Flowered in my path and made a frail delayF
In my true journey to my home in theeH
