My Longshore Lass Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDB EFGFHF IJDJKJ| Far in the mellow western sky | A |
| Above the restless harbor bar | B |
| A beacon on the coast of night | C |
| Shines out a calm white evening star | B |
| But your deep eyes my 'longshore lass | D |
| Are brighter clearer far | B |
| - | |
| The glory of the sunset past | E |
| Still gleams upon the water there | F |
| But all its splendor cannot match | G |
| The wind blown brightness of your hair | F |
| Not any sea maid's floating locks | H |
| Of gold are half so fair | F |
| - | |
| The waves are whispering to the sands | I |
| With murmurs as of elfin glee | J |
| But your low laughter 'longshore lass | D |
| Is like a sea harp's melody | J |
| And the vibrant tones of your tender voice | K |
| Are sweeter far to me | J |
