Gold Mouths Cry Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCCCDEDF CCCCC

Gold mouths cry with the green youngA
certainty of the bronze boyB
remembering a thousand autumnsC
and how a hundred thousand leavesC
came sliding down his shoulder bladesC
persuaded by his bronze heroic reasonD
We ignore the coming doom of goldE
and we are glad in this bright metal seasonD
Even the dead laugh among the goldenrodF
-
The bronze boy stands kneedeep in centuriesC
and never grievesC
remembering a thousand autumnsC
with sunlight of a thousand years upon his lipsC
and his eyes gone blind with leavesC
