Once It Was The Colour Of Saying Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBDCEFDAG| Once it was the colour of saying | A |
| Soaked my table the uglier side of a hill | B |
| With a capsized field where a school sat still | B |
| And a black and white patch of girls grew playing | A |
| The gentle seaslides of saying I must undo | C |
| That all the charmingly drowned arise to cockcrow and kill | B |
| When I whistled with mitching boys through a reservoir park | D |
| Where at night we stoned the cold and cuckoo | C |
| Lovers in the dirt of their leafy beds | E |
| The shade of their trees was a word of many shades | F |
| And a lamp of lightning for the poor in the dark | D |
| Now my saying shall be my undoing | A |
| And every stone I wind off like a reel | G |
