Days I Enjoy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJIKLMN| Days I enjoy are days when nothing happens | A |
| When I have no engagements written on my block | B |
| When no one comes to disturb my inward peace | C |
| When no one comes to take me away from myself | D |
| And turn me into a patchwork a jig saw puzzle | E |
| A broken mirror that once gave a whole reflection | F |
| Being so contrived that it takes too long a time | G |
| To get myself back to myself when they have gone | H |
| The years are too strickly measured and life too short | I |
| For me to afford such bits of myself to my friends | J |
| And what have I to give my friends in the last resort | I |
| An awkwardness a shyness and a scrap | K |
| No thing that's truly me a bootless waste | L |
| A waste of myself and them for my life is mine | M |
| And theirs presumably theirs and cannot touch | N |
