Mothers Of Men Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAAB CBCCB ABAAB

Mothers of men the words are good indeed in the sayingA
Pride in the very sound of them strength in the sense of them thenB
Why is it their faces haunt me wistful faces as prayingA
Ever some dear thing vanished and ever a hope delayingA
Mothers of MenB
-
Mothers of Men most patient tenderly slow to discoverC
The loss of the old allegiance that may not return againB
You give a man to the world you give a woman a loverC
Where is your solace then when the time of giving is overC
Mothers of MenB
-
Mothers of Men but surely the title is worth the earningA
You who are brave in feigning must I ever behold you thenB
By the door of an empty heart with the lamp of faith still burningA
Watching the ways of life for the sight of a child returningA
Mothers of MenB
