Tears Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD DBBD EFGEFG

Mourn that which will not come againA
The joy the strength of early yearsB
Bow down thy head and let thy tearsC
Water the grave where hope lies slainD
-
For tears are like a summer rainD
To murmur in a mourner's earsB
To soften all the field of fearsB
To moisten valleys parched with painD
-
And though thy tears will not awakeE
What lies beneath of young or fairF
And sleeps so sound it draws no breathG
Yet watered thus the sod may breakE
In flowers which sweeten all the airF
And fill with life the place of deathG
