Water Picture Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFFF GCHIFJKLM NOPQRSTQ UVCQWCVGX

In the pond in the parkA
all things are doubledB
Long buildings hang andC
wriggle gently ChimneysD
are bent legs bouncingE
on clouds below A flagF
wags like a fishhookF
down there in the skyF
-
The arched stone bridgeG
is an eye with underlidC
in the water In its lensH
dip crinkled heads with hatsI
that don't fall off Dogs go byF
barking on their backsJ
A baby taken to feed theK
ducks dangles upside downL
a pink balloon for a buoyM
-
Treetops deploy a haze ofN
cherry bloom for rootsO
where birds coast belly upP
in the glass bowl of a hillQ
from its bottom a bunchR
of peanut munching childrenS
is suspended by theirT
sneakers waveringlyQ
-
A swan with twin necksU
forming the figureV
steers between two dimpledC
towers doubled FondlyQ
hissing she kisses herselfW
and all the scene is troubledC
water windows splinterV
tree limbs tangle the bridgeG
folds like a fanX
