The Morning Shower Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABC DE FG H IJ KCF LA G

The young lady shows like a thing of lightA
In the shadowy deeps of a fair windowB
Grown round with flowersC
-
She is naked and leans forward and her flesh like frostD
Gathers the light beyond the stone brimE
-
Only the hair made ready for the dayF
Suggests the charm of modern clothingG
-
Her blond eyebrows are the shape of very young moonsH
-
The shower's bright water overflowsI
In a pure rainJ
-
She lifts one arm into an urgent lineK
Cooling her rose fingersC
On the grey metal of the sprayF
-
If I could choose my service I would be the showerL
Dashing over her in the sunlightA
-
From the Chinese of J S LingG
