By The North Sea Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCACA DEDEFGFGHer cheek was wet with North Sea spray | A |
We walked where tide and shingle meet | B |
The long waves rolled from far away | A |
To purr in ripples at our feet | B |
And as we walked it seemed to me | C |
That three old friends had met that day | A |
The old old sky the old old sea | C |
And love which is as old as they | A |
- | |
Out seaward hung the brooding mist | D |
We saw it rolling fold on fold | E |
And marked the great Sun alchemist | D |
Turn all its leaden edge to gold | E |
Look well look well oh lady mine | F |
The gray below the gold above | G |
For so the grayest life may shine | F |
All golden in the light of love | G |
