Beneath The Mexican Moonlight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH IJKLIMNO PNQJRNSA| I recall the warm night beneath the Mexican moonlight | A |
| It was there I lost my beautiful Spanish maiden | B |
| We had planned to meet at the caf earlier that evening | C |
| But something went awfully wrong with our plan | D |
| She might have had some other important engagement | E |
| I was in love with her and so anxious to be with her | F |
| It was almost midnight and there was still no sign of Maria | G |
| So I left the cafeteria in sadness and headed for home | H |
| - | |
| Suddenly I heard the soft strumming of guitars | I |
| And the song that was playing invigorated my heart | J |
| I walked along the path in the light of the Spanish moon | K |
| And I saw Maria dancing with a man on the bridge | L |
| Her misleading eyes were captivating as the stars | I |
| He was standing in front of her gently stroking her face | M |
| And then she kissed him just as she used to kiss me | N |
| I could almost taste the sweetness of her tender lips | O |
| - | |
| I froze for a moment and my throbbing heart sank | P |
| I hid carefully behind the oak tree so they could not see me | N |
| I watched in astonishment while she flirted with him | Q |
| And I stayed there until she theatrically gave him her heart | J |
| She left me standing there alone in the darkness | R |
| The sound of Spanish music echoed deep in the valley | N |
| How could I ever forget the painful experience I had | S |
| I lost Maria to a dreamer beneath the Mexican moonlight | A |
