Life Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADD EEFFGG| Hearken O dear now strikes the hour we die | A |
| We who in our strange kiss | B |
| Have proved a dream the world's realities | C |
| Turned each from other's darkness with a sigh | A |
| Need heed no more of life waste no more breath | D |
| On any other journey but of death | D |
| - | |
| And yet Oh know we well | E |
| How each of us must prove Love's infidel | E |
| Still out of ecstasy turn trembling back | F |
| To earth's same empty track | F |
| Of leaden day by day and hour by hour and be | G |
| Of all things lovely the cold mortuary | G |
