To-day, Dearest! Is Ours Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFGFHDHD| To day dearest is ours | A |
| Why should Love carelessly lose it | B |
| This life shines or lowers | A |
| Just as we weak mortals use it | B |
| 'Tis time enough when its flowers decay | C |
| To think of the thorns of Sorrow | D |
| And Joy if left on the stem to day | C |
| May wither before to morrow | D |
| - | |
| Then why dearest so long | E |
| Let the sweet moments fly over | F |
| Tho' now blooming and young | G |
| Thou hast me devoutly thy lover | F |
| Yet Time from both in his silent lapse | H |
| Some treasure may steal or borrow | D |
| Thy charms may be less in bloom perhaps | H |
| Or I less in love to morrow | D |
