Rhyme Scheme: A BCDEBFGHI JKLMNO PQRSTU

A Postscript for Marianne MooreA
-
No one exactly knowsB
Exactly how clouds look in the skyC
Or the shape of the mountains below themD
Or the direction in which fish swimE
No one exactly knowsB
The eye is jealous of whatever movesF
And the heartG
Is too far buried in the sandH
To tellI
-
They are going on a journeyJ
Those deep blue creaturesK
Passing us as if they were sunshineL
LookM
Those fins those closed eyesN
Admiring each last dropp of the oceanO
-
I crawled into bed with sorrow that nightP
Couldn t touch his fingers See the splashQ
Of the waterR
The noisy movement of cloudS
The push of the humpbacked mountainsT
Deep at the sand s edgeU
