Unsatisfied Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIHJKLK AMJMNOPO Q ABCBDEFE

Some sigh for the breath of the desertA
Where the stifling heat waves blowB
Some pant for the trackless tundraC
And the sting of the cold and snowB
Some long for the wash of a sultry seaD
As it breaks on a tropic shoreE
Some pine for the breeze of the northern seasF
And the sound of the Arctic's roarE
-
The things that men love be countlessG
But they're seldom the same with twoH
For the things I care for most of allI
Might never appeal to youH
Some men run to wine and womanJ
Some long for a wife and a homeK
And he drifts with the tide unsatisfiedL
Who leaves these things to roamK
-
For he hates the sands of the desertA
And the slimy tropic southM
Or his dreams of a northern fortuneJ
Are as ashes in his mouthM
He loses the best life holds for manN
His existence means discontentO
Still he goes his way until comes the dayP
When he quits it a life misspentO

Some sigh for the breath of the desertA
Where the stifling heat waves blowB
Some pant for the trackless tundraC
And the sting of the cold and snowB
Some long for the wash of a sultry seaD
As it breaks on a tropic shoreE
Some pine for the breeze of the northern seasF
And the sound of the Arctic's roarE
