The Trip To Mars Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFG HIJI KLFL MNON PNQN RSTS NNEN FUVIOh by and by we shall hear the cry | A |
'This is the way to Mars ' | B |
Come take a trip on the morning Ship | C |
It sails by the Isle of Stars | D |
- | |
'A glorious view of planets new | E |
We promise by night and day | F |
Past dying suns our good ship runs | G |
And we pause at the Milky Way ' | - |
- | |
I am almost sure we will take that tour | H |
Together my dear my dear | I |
For ever have we by land and sea | J |
Gone journeying far and near | I |
- | |
Out over the deep o'er mountain steep | K |
We have travelled mile on mile | L |
And to sail away to the Martian Bay | F |
Oh that were a trip worth while | L |
- | |
Our ship will race through seas of space | M |
Up into the Realms of Light | N |
Till the whirling ball of the earth grows small | O |
And is utterly lost to sight | N |
- | |
Through the nebulous spawn where planets are born | P |
We shall pass with sails well furled | N |
And with eager eyes we will scan the skies | Q |
For the sights of a new made world | N |
- | |
From the derelict barque of a sun gone dark | R |
Adrift on our fair ship's path | S |
A beacon star shall guide us afar | T |
And far from the comet's wrath | S |
- | |
Oh many a start of pulse and heart | N |
We have felt at the sights of land | N |
But what would we do if the dream came true | E |
And we sighted the Martian strand | N |
- | |
So if some day you come and say | F |
They are sailing to Mars I hear | U |
I want you to know I am ready to go | V |
All ready my dear my dear | I |
