Ours To Endure Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBA BCCB DEED

We speak of the world that passes awayA
The world of men who lived years agoB
And could not feel that their hearts' quick glowB
Would fade to such ashen lore to dayA
-
We hear of death that is not our woeB
And see the shadow of funerals creepingC
Over the sweet fresh roads by the reapingC
But do we weep till our loved ones goB
-
When one is lost who is greater than weD
And loved us so well that death should reprieveE
Of all hearts this one to us when we must leaveE
His grave the past will break like the seaD
