The Way Of It Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFFGHF IBJKBBLMNOPQ

With her fingers she turns paintA
into flowers with her bodyB
flowers into a remembranceC
of herself She is at workD
always mending the garmentE
of our marriage foragingF
like a bird for somethingF
for us to eat If there are thornsG
in my life it is she whoH
will press her breast to them and singF
-
Her words when she would scoldI
are too sharp She is busyB
after for hours rubbing smilesJ
into the wounds I saw herK
when young and spread the panoplyB
of my feathers instinctivelyB
to engage her She was not deceivedL
but accepted me as a girlM
will under a thin moonN
in love's absence as someoneO
she could build a home withP
for her imagined childQ
