Trade Winds Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAB CCCB DDDB

In the harbor in the island in the Spanish SeasA
Are the tiny white houses and the orange treesA
And day long night long the cool and pleasant breezeA
Of the steady Trade Winds blowingB
-
There is the red wine the nutty Spanish aleC
The shuffle of the dancers the old salt's taleC
The squeaking fiddle and the soughing in the sailC
Of the steady Trade Winds blowingB
-
And o' nights there's fire flies and the yellow moonD
And in the ghostly palm trees the sleepy tuneD
Of the quiet voice calling me the long low croonD
Of the steady Trade Winds blowingB
