Rip Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGGGHIJKLMNOPQR ABC| It can't be the passing of time that casts | A |
| That white shadow across the waters | B |
| Just offshore | C |
| I shiver a little with the evening | D |
| I turn down the steep path to find | E |
| What's left of the river gold | F |
| I whistle a dog lazily and lazily | G |
| A bird whistles me | G |
| Close by a big river I am alive in my own country | G |
| I am home again | H |
| Yes I lived here and here and my name | I |
| That I carved young with a girl's is healed over now | J |
| And lies sleeping beneath the inward sky | K |
| Of a tree's skin close to the quick | L |
| It's best to keep still | M |
| But | N |
| There goes that bird that whistled me down here | O |
| To the river a moment ago | P |
| Who is he A little white barn owl from Hudson's Bay | Q |
| Flown out of his range here and if he wants to | R |
| He can be the body that casts | A |
| That white shadow across the waters | B |
| Just offshore | C |
