My Dead Dream Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD AAEEHAVE YOU found me at last O my Dream Seven eons ago | A |
You died and I buried you deep under forests of snow | A |
Why have you come hither Who bade you awake from your sleep | B |
And track me beyond the cerulean foam of the deep | B |
- | |
- | |
Would you tear from my lintels these sacred green garlands of leaves | C |
Would you scare the white nested wild pigeons of joy from my eaves | C |
Would you touch and defile with dead fingers the robes of my priest | D |
Would you weave your dim moan with the chantings of love at my feast | D |
- | |
Go back to your grave O my Dream under forests of snow | A |
Where a heart riven child hid you once seven eons ago | A |
Who bade you arise from your darkness I bid you depart | E |
Profane not the shrines I have raised in the clefts of my heart | E |
