He Comes To Me Like Air On Parching Grass Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCCDCDEE| He comes to me like air on parching grass | A |
| His eyes are wells where truth lives found at last | B |
| Summer is fragrant should he this way pass | A |
| His calm love is a chain that binds me fast | B |
| Yet often melancholy will forecast | B |
| That time when I shall have grown old when he | C |
| Still rapturous in his struggle with life's blast | B |
| Shall give a pitying side glance to me | C |
| Who skirt the fog fringe of eternity | C |
| Straining mine eyes to catch what shadowy sign | D |
| Of good or evil omen there may be | C |
| Yet no sure good nor evil can divine | D |
| Only some hints of doubtful sound and light | E |
| That lonelier leave the uncompanioned night | E |
