An Afternoon At The Beach Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDB ABEBEB

I ll go among the dead to see my friendA
The place I leave is beautiful the seaB
Repeats the winds far swell in its long soundC
And there beside it houses solemnlyB
Shine with the modest courage of the landD
While swimmers try the verge of what they seeB
-
-
I cannot go although I should pretendA
Some final self whose phantom eye could seeB
Him who because he is not cannot changeE
And yet the thought of going makes the seaB
The land the swimmers and myself seem strangeE
Almost as strange as they will someday beB
