Turns And Movies: Violet Moore And Bert Moore Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDD EEFFGG HHIIJJDDD| He thinks her little feet should pass | A |
| Where dandelions star thickly grass | A |
| Her hands should lift in sunlit air | B |
| Sea wind should tangle up her hair | B |
| Green leaves he says have never heard | C |
| A sweeter ragtime mockingbird | C |
| Nor has the moon man ever seen | D |
| Or man in the spotlight leering green | D |
| Such a beguiling smiling queen | D |
| - | |
| Her eyes he says are stars at dusk | E |
| Her mouth as sweet as red rose musk | E |
| And when she dances his young heart swells | F |
| With flutes and viols and silver bells | F |
| His brain is dizzy his senses swim | G |
| When she slants her ragtime eyes at him | G |
| - | |
| Moonlight shadows he bids her see | H |
| Move no more silently than she | H |
| It was this way he says she came | I |
| Into his cold heart bearing flame | I |
| And now that his heart is all on fire | J |
| Will she refuse his heart's desire | J |
| And O has the Moon Man ever seen | D |
| Or the spotlight devil leering green | D |
| A sweeter shadow upon a screen | D |
