To Victory Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE DGHG HHHH| Return to greet me colours that were my joy | A |
| Not in the woeful crimson of men slain | B |
| But shining as a garden come with the streaming | C |
| Banners of dawn and sundown after rain | B |
| - | |
| I want to fill my gaze with blue and silver | D |
| Radiance through living roses spires of green | E |
| Rising in young limbed copse and lovely wood | F |
| Where the hueless wind passes and cries unseen | E |
| - | |
| I am not sad only I long for lustre | D |
| Tired of the greys and browns and the leafless ash | G |
| I would have hours that move like a glitter of dancers | H |
| Far from the angry guns that boom and flash | G |
| - | |
| Return musical gay with blossom and fleetness | H |
| Days when my sight shall be clear and my heart rejoice | H |
| Come from the sea with breadth of approaching brightness | H |
| When the blithe wind laughs on the hills with up lifted voice | H |
