After The War Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCDEFGBHB IHBHJIKILBHB

Last Post soundedA
Across the meadB
To where he loiteredB
With absent heedB
Five years beforeC
In the evening thereD
Had flown that callE
To him and his DearF
You'll never come backG
Good bye she had saidB
Here I'll be livingH
And my Love deadB
-
Those closing minimsI
Had been as shafts dartingH
Through him and her pressedB
In that last partingH
They thrilled him not nowJ
In the selfsame placeI
With the selfsame sunK
On his war seamed faceI
Lurks a god's laughterL
In this he saidB
That I am the livingH
And she the deadB
