A Memory Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDEF GEHIJKI FIILI| I remember | A |
| The crackle of the palm trees | B |
| Over the mooned white roofs of the town | C |
| The shining town | C |
| And the tender fumbling of the surf | D |
| On the sulphur yellow beaches | E |
| As we sat a little apart in the close pressing night | F |
| - | |
| The moon hung above us like a golden mango | G |
| And the moist air clung to our faces | E |
| Warm and fragrant as the open mouth of a child | H |
| And we watched the out flung sea | I |
| Rolling to the purple edge of the world | J |
| Yet ever back upon itself | K |
| As we | I |
| - | |
| Inadequate night | F |
| And mooned white memory | I |
| Of a tropic sea | I |
| How softly it comes up | L |
| Like an ungathered lily | I |
