Futility Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACAAA DEFGHIH| Move him into the sun | A |
| Gently its touch awoke him once | B |
| At home whispering of fields unsown | A |
| Always it woke him even in France | C |
| Until this morning and this snow | A |
| If anything might rouse him now | A |
| The kind old sun will know | A |
| - | |
| Think how it wakes the seeds | D |
| Woke once the clays of a cold star | E |
| Are limbs so dear achieved are sides | F |
| Full nerved still warm too hard to stir | G |
| Was it for this the clay grew tall | H |
| O what made fatuous sunbeams toil | I |
| To break earth's sleep at all | H |
