Mothers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBADED FGHIJKAK E| Through the vigils deep of the sable night | A |
| A mother sits in grief alone | B |
| For her sons have gone to the battle front | C |
| And left on the hearth a crushing stone | B |
| Beyond the stars that burn at night | A |
| She sees God's arm in pity reach | D |
| It counsels patience love and faith | E |
| Heroic hearts and souls to teach | D |
| - | |
| The blue is spann'd and the tide goes out | F |
| And the stars rain down a kindlier cheer | G |
| And the mother turns from this throne of grief | H |
| To pierce the years with a joyous tear | I |
| For duty born of a mother's heart | J |
| Fills all the rounds of our common day | K |
| Yea sheds its joy in the darkest night | A |
| And fills with light each hidden way | K |

| For Miss Ina Coolbrith | E |
