An Afternoon At The Beach Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDB ABEBEBI ll go among the dead to see my friend | A |
The place I leave is beautiful the sea | B |
Repeats the winds far swell in its long sound | C |
And there beside it houses solemnly | B |
Shine with the modest courage of the land | D |
While swimmers try the verge of what they see | B |
- | |
- | |
I cannot go although I should pretend | A |
Some final self whose phantom eye could see | B |
Him who because he is not cannot change | E |
And yet the thought of going makes the sea | B |
The land the swimmers and myself seem strange | E |
Almost as strange as they will someday be | B |
