Ours To Endure Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA BCCB DEEDWe speak of the world that passes away | A |
The world of men who lived years ago | B |
And could not feel that their hearts' quick glow | B |
Would fade to such ashen lore to day | A |
- | |
We hear of death that is not our woe | B |
And see the shadow of funerals creeping | C |
Over the sweet fresh roads by the reaping | C |
But do we weep till our loved ones go | B |
- | |
When one is lost who is greater than we | D |
And loved us so well that death should reprieve | E |
Of all hearts this one to us when we must leave | E |
His grave the past will break like the sea | D |
