An Empty Room Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFAGAGHIHI| 'THIS is the room where Pinksie died' | A |
| So runs the writing there on the wall | B |
| The world outside is a golden tide | A |
| Of light but here the shadows fall | B |
| And who was Pinksie a babe or wife | C |
| A girl I think in her laughing teens | D |
| Who passed away from the feast of life | C |
| When boys and girls are kings and queens | D |
| I like to think that she laughed at whiles | E |
| Her eyes alight with the imps of fun | F |
| And knew no sorrow but such as smiles | E |
| The moment after the hurt is done | F |
| They named her Pinksie I have no doubt | A |
| Because of the rich soft blush she wore | G |
| The roses paled ere they bore her out | A |
| A slim child figure through yonder door | G |
| She passed in the joy of her early bloom | H |
| To wide dark realms where no planets roll | I |
| And I write these lines in the empty room | H |
| Where Pinksie died God rest her soul | I |
