A Song Of Flight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAABB CCCBB DDDBB

While we slumber and sleepA
The sun leaps up from the deepA
Daylight born at the leapA
Rapid dominant freeB
Athirst to bathe in the uttermost seaB
-
While we linger at playC
If the year would stand at MayC
Winds are up and awayC
Over land over seaB
To their goal wherever their goal may beB
-
It is time to ariseD
To race for the promised prizeD
The sun flies the wind fliesD
We are strong we are freeB
And home lies beyond the stars and the seaB
