For The Anniversary Of My Death Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE DFGHIJKL| Every year without knowing it I have passed the day | A |
| When the last fires will wave to me | B |
| And the silence will set out | C |
| Tireless traveller | D |
| Like the beam of a lightless star | E |
| - | |
| Then I will no longer | D |
| Find myself in life as in a strange garment | F |
| Surprised at the earth | G |
| And the love of one woman | H |
| And the shamelessness of men | I |
| As today writing after three days of rain | J |
| Hearing the wren sing and the falling cease | K |
| And bowing not knowing to what | L |
