To His Dead Body Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDDEE

When roaring gloom surged inward and you criedA
Groping for friendly hands and clutched and diedA
Like racing smoke swift from your lolling headB
phantoms of thought and memory thinned and fledB
-
Yet though my dreams that throng the darkened stairC
Can bring me no report of how you fareC
Safe quit of wars I speed you on your wayD
Up lonely glimmering fields to find new dayD
Slow rising saintless confident and kindE
Dear red faced father God who lit your mindE

Siegfried Sassoon
