Song: The Cup Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBACA DEDFBGAGAAs a hot traveller | A |
Going through stones and sands | B |
Who sees clear water stir | A |
Amid the weary lands | B |
Takes in his hollowed hands | B |
The clean and lively water | A |
That trickles down his throat | C |
Like laughter like laughter | A |
- | |
So when you come to me | D |
Across these parch d places | E |
And all the waste I see | D |
Flowered with your graces | F |
I take between my hands | B |
Your face like a rare cup | G |
Where kisses mix with laughter | A |
And drink and drink them up | G |
Like water like water | A |
