Within Reach Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFG HIJKLLCMINOIPQ CRSTUVSSWX

There are two imagesA
a moon within reachB
yet trapped under snowC
an old woman's threadbare shawlD
with peasants furiously working broomsE
scraping ice shavingsF
into howls and husks of frenzyG
-
Ii-
Then the same pondH
this time summerI
with fishing netsJ
and briefer shawlsK
pirating light's wanton swoonL
a spyglass hour moonL
all bathed in yellowC
colour of keroseneM
a rich creamy butterI
goldilocks let out on weekendsN
her spun golden tressesO
lowered onto the waterI
like so many little boatsP
nimbly hopping aboardQ
-
liiC
A kerchief folded on a fenceR
a man wearing an overcoat living thereS
in white satin swooningT
to the pianist's expert touchU
down magic chambersV
soothing soothing thereS
to fold and tearS
the pileated moonlit edgeW
of her skinX
