Peace. A Study Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFHIJIJKLMLHe stood a worn out City clerk | A |
Who'd toil'd and seen no holiday | B |
For forty years from dawn to dark | C |
Alone beside Caermarthen Bay | B |
He felt the salt spray on his lips | D |
Heard children's voices on the sands | E |
Up the sun's path he saw the ships | D |
Sail on and on to other lands | E |
And laugh'd aloud Each sight and sound | F |
To him was joy too deep for tears | G |
He sat him on the beach and bound | F |
A blue bandana round his ears | H |
And thought how posted near his door | I |
His own green door on Camden Hill | J |
Two bands at least most likely more | I |
Were mingling at their own sweet will | J |
Verdi with Vance And at the thought | K |
He laugh'd again and softly drew | L |
That Morning Herald that he'd bought | M |
Forth from his breast and read it through | L |
