Words Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFEG HIHI JKJLI had this thought a while ago | A |
'My darling cannot understand | B |
What I have done or what would do | C |
In this blind bitter land ' | D |
- | |
And I grew weary of the sun | E |
Until my thoughts cleared up again | F |
Remembering that the best I have done | E |
Was done to make it plain | G |
- | |
That every year I have cried 'At length | H |
My darling understands it all | I |
Because I have come into my strength | H |
And words obey my call' | I |
- | |
That had she done so who can say | J |
What would have shaken from the sieve | K |
I might have thrown poor words away | J |
And been content to live | L |
