To Maggie Le Gallienne With Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDBEDFFB BGBHIGBJG

Poor are the gifts of the poetA
Nothing but wordsB
The gifts of kings are goldC
Silver and flocks and herdsB
Garments of strange soft silkD
Feathers of wonderful birdsB
Jewels and precious stonesE
And horses white as the milkD
These are the gifts of kingsF
But the gifts that the poet bringsF
Are nothing but wordsB
-
Forty thousand wordsB
Take them a gift of fliesG
Words that should have been birdsB
Words that should have been flowersH
Words that should have been starsI
In the eternal skiesG
Forty thousand wordsB
Forty thousand tearsJ
All out of two sad eyesG
