Paula Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AB CDEFD GHI AB| NOTHING else in this song only your face | A |
| Nothing else here only your drinking night gray eyes | B |
| - | |
| The pier runs into the lake straight as a rifle barrel | C |
| I stand on the pier and sing how I know you mornings | D |
| It is not your eyes your face I remember | E |
| It is not your dancing race horse feet | F |
| It is something else I remember you for on the pier mornings | D |
| - | |
| Your hands are sweeter than nut brown bread when you touch me | G |
| Your shoulder brushes my arm a south west wind crosses the pier | H |
| I forget your hands and your shoulder and I say again | I |
| - | |
| Nothing else in this song only your face | A |
| Nothing else here only your drinking night gray eyes | B |
