Silence Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCCBADDAAEEFAFTo Eleonora Duse | A |
- | |
We are anhungered after solitude | B |
Deep stillness pure of any speech or sound | C |
Soft quiet hovering over pools profound | C |
The silences that on the desert brood | B |
Above a windless hush of empty seas | A |
The broad unfurling banners of the dawn | D |
A faery forest where there sleeps a Faun | D |
Our souls are fain of solitudes like these | A |
O woman who divined our weariness | A |
And set the crown of silence on your art | E |
From what undreamed of depth within your heart | E |
Have you sent forth the hush that makes us free | F |
To hear an instant high above earth's stress | A |
The silent music of infinity | F |
