Desert Pools Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EAFA| I love too much I am a river | A |
| Surging with spring that seeks the sea | B |
| I am too generous a giver | A |
| Love will not stoop to drink of me | B |
| - | |
| His feet will turn to desert places | C |
| Shadowless reft of rain and dew | D |
| Where stars stare down with sharpened faces | C |
| From heavens pitilessly blue | D |
| - | |
| And there at midnight sick with faring | E |
| He will stoop down in his desire | A |
| To slake the thirst grown past all bearing | F |
| In stagnant water keen as fire | A |
