The Kind Ghosts Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABA ABA BAB CAB| She sleeps on soft last breaths but no ghost looms | A |
| Out of the stillness of her palace wall | B |
| Her wall of boys on boys and dooms on dooms | A |
| - | |
| She dreams of golden gardens and sweet glooms | A |
| Not marvelling why her roses never fall | B |
| Nor what red mouths were torn to make their blooms | A |
| - | |
| The shades keep down which well might roam her hall | B |
| Quiet their blood lies in her crimson rooms | A |
| And she is not afraid of their footfall | B |
| - | |
| They move not from her tapestries their pall | C |
| Nor pace her terraces their hecatombs | A |
| Lest aught she be disturbed or grieved at all | B |
