The Gulf Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEFA| A Gulf of silence separates us from each other | A |
| I stand at one side of the gulf you at the other | A |
| I cannot see you or hear you yet know that you are there | B |
| Often I call you by your childish name | C |
| And pretend that the echo to my crying is your voice | D |
| How can we bridge the gulf Never by speech or touch | E |
| Once I thought we might fill it quite up with tears | F |
| Now I want to shatter it with our laughter | A |
