A Fleeting Passion Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIHJKLK| Thou shalt not laugh thou shalt not romp | A |
| Let's grimly kiss with bated breath | B |
| As quietly and solemnly | C |
| As Life when it is kissing Death | B |
| Now in the silence of the grave | D |
| My hand is squeezing that soft breast | E |
| While thou dost in such passion lie | F |
| It mocks me with its look of rest | E |
| - | |
| But when the morning comes at last | G |
| And we must part our passions cold | H |
| You'll think of some new feather scarf | I |
| To buy with my small piece of gold | H |
| And I'll be dreaming of green lanes | J |
| Where little things with beating hearts | K |
| Hold shining eyes between the leaves | L |
| Till men with horses pass and carts | K |
