Invocation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDD EEFFGHIJ| Come down from heaven to meet me when my breath | A |
| Chokes and through drumming shafts of stifling death | A |
| I stumble toward escape to find the door | B |
| Opening on morn where I may breathe once more | B |
| Clear cock crow airs across some valley dim | C |
| With whispering trees While dawn along the rim | C |
| Of night's horizon flows in lakes of fire | D |
| Come down from heaven's bright hill my song's desire | D |
| - | |
| Belov'd and faithful teach my soul to wake | E |
| In glades deep ranked with flowers that gleam and shake | E |
| And flock your paths with wonder In your gaze | F |
| Show me the vanquished vigil of my days | F |
| Mute in that golden silence hung with green | G |
| Come down from heaven and bring me in your eyes | H |
| Remembrance of all beauty that has been | I |
| And stillness from the pools of Paradise | J |
