The Glimpse Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF

Just for a day you crossed my life's dull trackA
Put my ignobler dreams to sudden shameB
Went your bright way and left me to fall backA
On my own world of poorer deed and aimB
-
To fall back on my meaner world and feelC
Like one who dwelling 'mid some smoke dimmed townD
In a brief pause of labour's sullen wheelC
'Scaped from the street's dead dust and factory's frownD
-
In stainless daylight saw the pure seas rollE
Saw mountains pillaring the perfect skyF
Then journeyed home to carry in his soulE
The torment of the difference till he dieF
