Periods Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEF GHGHIJIJ KLKLMNMOMy destiny it is tonight | A |
To sit with pensive brow | B |
Beside my study fire and write | A |
This verse I'm making now | B |
This Period this tiny dot | C |
My pencil has defined | D |
By centuries of human thought | E |
Was predestined | F |
- | |
And my last period of all | G |
With patience now I see | H |
The final point so very small | G |
That locks my life for me | H |
Yet in eternity of time | I |
They relatively seem | J |
So like the dot that rounds my rhyme | I |
Or ends my dream | J |
- | |
For each was preordained by Fate | K |
Since human life began | L |
So are the little and the great | K |
Linked in the life of man | L |
And as I wait without heartache | M |
The pencil point of God | N |
To pattern predestined I make | M |
This | O |
