Beyond The Rain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBADED AFGFAHGH AIJIAKDL AMNMAOKO| Where have all the raindrops gone | A |
| Spilling from on high | B |
| Which once would fall about my head | C |
| But now my head is dry | B |
| Where have all the snowflakes gone | A |
| Ambling down from space | D |
| Shivering in the winter wild | E |
| And melting on my face | D |
| - | |
| Where have all the rivers gone | A |
| Dashing to and fro | F |
| They once would splash across the land | G |
| As seaward they would go | F |
| Where have all the oceans gone | A |
| To crash against the shore | H |
| All that's left is salted sand | G |
| Upon a seabed floor | H |
| - | |
| Where have all the rainbows gone | A |
| They lighted up the days | I |
| They once would bow and bend and reach | J |
| So far the eye could gaze | I |
| Where have all the sundrops gone | A |
| To energise the rain | K |
| Absent now without a trace | D |
| And never seen again | L |
| - | |
| And where have all my brothers gone | A |
| Each walked the earth with me | M |
| O'er moor and mountain here and there | N |
| From clifftop to the sea | M |
| And where have all my sisters gone | A |
| And all the loves I've known | O |
| Disappeared just like the rain | K |
| So now I'm left alone | O |
