The Metropolitan Tower Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIHWe walked together in the dusk | A |
To watch the tower grow dimly white | B |
And saw it lift against the sky | C |
Its flower of amber light | B |
- | |
You talked of half a hundred things | D |
I kept each little word you said | E |
And when at last the hour was full | F |
I saw the light turn red | E |
- | |
You did not know the time had come | G |
You did not see the sudden flower | H |
Nor know that in my heart Love's birth | I |
Was reckoned from that hour | H |
