Friendship Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABC DEF GBHI JKBL BJMB| On board a ship the sun shines to full and the moon the billion stars shine not to full | A |
| Sailing high and low and smoothly safe amidst the turbulent snaps of waves and typhoon strikes | B |
| As I lay in bed a smile in my lips and a peaceful mind indeed | C |

| I see to full the extensive distances of the east from the west or of the north from the south | D |
| I filled to brim my eyes with the dazzling water of the wide ocean beyond and I complained with the shattering breeze of the wind and the air breaking hard my nose into the inside | E |
| So I started to get bored and wish to see soon again my own feet walking in the ground | F |

| The ship once I board into is an acquaintance into the world | G |
| A bridge of our own time from the long days of yesteryear's | B |
| We sailed together and moved backward apart towards each's own destiny | H |
| We laughed together many times our hands together under each own blue moon | I |
| - | |
| The water is so dazzling my eyes seemed blinded at the sight | J |
| A momentous blink and a gentle tap of my own hand I need this time | K |
| And heart to sense not the sweetness of innocence but the real hue behind the glistening waters | B |
| Or of the beautiful rainbow that comes out only when raindrops veil against the marvelous sun | L |
| - | |
| - | |
| Oh there is real beauty behind every beast casting before thy eyes | B |
| Or there seemed a beast hiding within the most virtuous sight | J |
| I know not until thy heart s wit tainted to a mundane hue | M |
| A camouflage to unveil the beast behind and a spell to hurl spirits of pure hearts | B |
