Love Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDCD CDDC ACCA EFFE| Dear absurd child too dear to my cost I've found | A |
| God made your soul for pleasure not for use | B |
| It cleaves no way but angled broad obtuse | B |
| Impinges with a slabby bellied sound | A |
| Full upon life and on the rind of things | C |
| Rubs its sleek self and utters purr and snore | D |
| And all the gamut of satisfied murmurings | C |
| Content with that nor wishes anything more | D |
| - | |
| A happy infant daubed to the eyes in juice | C |
| Of peaches that flush bloody at the core | D |
| Naked you bask upon a south sea shore | D |
| While o'er your tumbling bosom the hair floats loose | C |
| - | |
| The wild flowers bloom and die the heavens go round | A |
| With the song of wheeling planetary rings | C |
| You wriggle in the sun each moment brings | C |
| Its freight for you in all things pleasures abound | A |
| - | |
| You taste and smile then this for the next pass over | E |
| And there's no future for you and no past | F |
| And when absurdly death arrives at last | F |
| 'Twill please you awhile to kiss your latest lover | E |
