The Eyes Of Youth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIEJKLMNOPQ| Time buys no wisdom like the eyes of youth | A |
| Though youth itself be blinded with delight | B |
| As a buoyant swimmer by the bursting spray | C |
| Of the resplendent surge and know not yet | D |
| The marvel of its own heart's vision blurred | E |
| By lovely follies dancing in the sun | F |
| I heard a skylark scaling the spring air | G |
| As slow I climbed the misty rough hill side | H |
| He poured the wordless wonder of his joy | I |
| Into the empty sky was never word | E |
| Of human language held a joy so pure | J |
| But it was I who knew it Though my feet | K |
| Stayed on the plodded earth and in the mist | L |
| Yet I could breathe float mount and sing with him | M |
| The unweariable singer I could bathe | N |
| In the beyond of blue and know the round | O |
| Of sea beneath me and the sun above | P |
| He gave of what he knew not soaring throat | Q |
