To A Creole Lady Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB CCCC BBC CCD

In a perfumed land caressed by the sunA
I found beneath the trees' crimson canopyB
palms from which languor pours on one'sC
eyes the veiled charms of a Creole ladyB
-
-
Her hue pale but warm a dark haired enchantressC
she shows in her neck's poise the noblest of mannersC
slender and tall she strides by like a huntressC
tranquil her smile her eyes full of assuranceC
-
-
If you traveled my Lady to the land of true gloryB
the banks of the Seine or green Loire a BeautyB
worthy of gracing the manors of olden daysC
-
-
you'd inspire among arbours' shadowy secretsC
a thousand sonnets in the hearts of the poetsC
whom more than your blacks your vast eyes would enslaveD

Charles Baudelaire
