The Planet On The Table Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABC DEC DFD GHE CIC

Ariel was glad he had written his poemsA
They were of a remembered timeB
Or of something seen that he likedC
-
Other makings of the sunD
Were waste and welterE
And the ripe shrub writhedC
-
His self and the sun were oneD
And his poems although makings of his selfF
Were no less makings of the sunD
-
It was not important that they surviveG
What mattered was that they should bearH
Some lineament or characterE
-
Some affluence if only half perceivedC
In the poverty of their wordsI
Of the planet of which they were partC
