  As Dusk Fell

  The wanderlust

     a poor wretch feels

  Seeing the dust

     a'fore seeds sow'd.

  His path chosen

     a burden tow'd

  The labourer

     whom no love shields.

  Descended dusk

     upon the fields

  A lonely husk

     travelled the road.

  The night broken

     as ravens crow'd

  Still Wanderer

     his last breath yields.

  I created the rhyme scheme for this myself, it follows a-b-a-c, d-c-e-b and then repeats. I created this with four syllables per line, in a set of four quatrains (four-lined stanzas).

  I hope you like it!
