Sail Away Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABC DEF GHIJ KGL| Early in the day it was whispered that we should sail in a boat | A |
| only thou and I and never a soul in the world would know of this our | B |
| pilgrimage to no country and to no end | C |
| - | |
| In that shoreless ocean | D |
| at thy silently listening smile my songs would swell in melodies | E |
| free as waves free from all bondage of words | F |
| - | |
| Is the time not come yet | G |
| Are there works still to do | H |
| Lo the evening has come down upon the shore | I |
| and in the fading light the seabirds come flying to their nests | J |
| - | |
| Who knows when the chains will be off | K |
| and the boat like the last glimmer of sunset | G |
| vanish into the night | L |
