Union Square Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH GIJI ABKB| With the man I love who loves me not | A |
| I walked in the street lamps' flare | B |
| We watched the world go home that night | C |
| In a flood through Union Square | B |
| - | |
| I leaned to catch the words he said | D |
| That were light as a snowflake falling | E |
| Ah well that he never leaned to hear | F |
| The words my heart was calling | E |
| - | |
| And on we walked and on we walked | G |
| Past the fiery lights of the picture shows | H |
| Where the girls with thirsty eyes go by | I |
| On the errand each man knows | H |
| - | |
| And on we walked and on we walked | G |
| At the door at last we said good bye | I |
| I knew by his smile he had not heard | J |
| My heart's unuttered cry | I |
| - | |
| With the man I love who loves me not | A |
| I walked in the street lamps' flare | B |
| But oh the girls who can ask for love | K |
| In the lights of Union Square | B |
