Stars Were Racing Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBC ABDB EFCA

Stars were racing waves were washing headlandsA
Salt went blind and tears were slowly dryingB
Darkened were the bedrooms thoughts were racingB
And the Sphinx was listening to the desertC
-
Candles swam It seemed that the Colossus'A
Blood grew cold upon his lips was spreadingB
The blue shadow smile of the SaharaD
With the turning tide the night was waningB
-
Sea breeze from Morocco touched the waterE
Simooms blew In snowdrifts snored ArchangelF
Candles swam the rough draft of 'The Prophet'C
Slowly dried and dawn broke on the GangesA
