Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE FGHIJK

On the breakwater in the summer dark a man and aA
girl are sittingB
She across his knee and they are looking face into faceC
Talking to each other without words singing rythms inD
silence to each otherE
-
A funnel of white ranges the blue dusk from an outF
going boatG
Playing its searchlight puzzled abrupt over a streak ofH
greenI
And two on the breakwater keep their silence she on hisJ
kneeK
