Wayfarers, The Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCBA DEFEDFIs it the hour We leave this resting place | A |
Made fair by one another for a while | B |
Now for a god speed one last mad embrace | A |
The long road then unlit by your faint smile | B |
Ah the long road and you so far away | C |
Oh I'll remember but each crawling day | C |
Will pale a little your scarlet lips each mile | B |
Dull the dear pain of your remembered face | A |
- | |
Do you think there's a far border town somewhere | D |
The desert's edge last of the lands we know | E |
Some gaunt eventual limit of our light | F |
In which I'll find you waiting and we'll go | E |
Together hand in hand again out there | D |
Into the waste we know not into the night | F |
