Dust Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEAE| When I went to look at what had long been hidden | A |
| A jewel laid long ago in a secret place | B |
| I trembled for I thought to see its dark deep fire | C |
| But only a pinch of dust blew up in my face | B |
| - | |
| I almost gave my life long ago for a thing | D |
| That has gone to dust now stinging my eyes | E |
| It is strange how often a heart must be broken | A |
| Before the years can make it wise | E |
