At The Parting Of The Ways Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBABACADCDADDHere our roads part Go thou by thy green valley | A |
Thy youth before thee and the river Nile | B |
My path lies o'er the desert and my galley | A |
Has rougher seas to plough and days the while | B |
I know not what to offer you a smile | B |
A blessing a farewell I dare not dally | A |
Even with the thought of tears 'Twas but a mile | B |
We walked together and such things were folly | A |
I will not hope who have no faith in fate | C |
That I shall you remember or you me | A |
Beyond to morrow Yet perhaps the wind | D |
Blowing some morning through its Eastern gate | C |
May tell you of my fortune and behind | D |
The Western star some evening I may see | A |
As in a vision of far days more kind | D |
Your dear eyes watching while the night grows blind | D |
