Man And The Sea Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC AEFA GHIG

Free man you'll love the ocean endlesslyA
It is your mirror you observe your soulB
In how its billows endlessly unrollB
Your spirit's bitter depths are there to seeA
-
You plunge in joy to your reflection's coreC
With eyes and heart seizing it all alongD
Your heart sometimes neglects its proper songD
Distracted by the ocean's savage roarC
-
The two of you are subtle shadowyA
Man none has sounded your profound recessE
O sea none knows the richness of your depthsF
Since you protect your secrets jealouslyA
-
And yet because you both love death and strifeG
You've fought each other through the endless yearsH
With no remorse without a pitying tearI
Relentless brothers enemies for lifeG

Charles Baudelaire
