Our Hands Have Met Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAAC DEDDC FDFFC DGDD DHDDC| Our hands have met our lips have met | A |
| Our souls who knows when the wind blows | B |
| How light souls drift mid longings set | A |
| If thou forget'st can I forget | A |
| The time that was not long ago | C |
| - | |
| Thou wert not silent then but told | D |
| Sweet secrets dear I drew so near | E |
| Thy shamefaced cheeks grown overbold | D |
| That scarce thine eyes might I behold | D |
| Ah was it then so long ago | C |
| - | |
| Trembled my lips and thou wouldst turn | F |
| But hadst no heart to draw apart | D |
| Beneath my lips thy cheek did burn | F |
| Yet no rebuke that I might learn | F |
| Yea kind looks still not long ago | C |
| - | |
| Wilt thou be glad upon the day | D |
| When unto me this love shall be | G |
| An idle fancy passed away | D |
| And we shall meet and smile and say | D |
| 'O wasted sighs of long ago ' | - |
| - | |
| Wilt thou rejoice that thou hast set | D |
| Cold words dull shows 'twixt hearts drawn close | H |
| That cold at heart I live on yet | D |
| Forgetting still that I forget | D |
| The priceless days of long ago | C |
