Seashore Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE FGHID JKLJ MNOPON AQMRSO

On the seashore of endless worlds children meetA
The infinite sky is motionless overheadB
and the restless water is boisterousC
On the seashore of endless worldsD
the children meet with shouts and dancesE
-
They build their houses with sandF
and they play with empty shellsG
With withered leaves they weave their boatsH
and smilingly float them on the vast deepI
Children have their play on the seashore of worldsD
-
They know not how to swim they know not how to cast netsJ
Pearl fishers dive for pearls merchants sail in their shipsK
while children gather pebbles and scatter them againL
They seek not for hidden treasures they know not how to cast netsJ
-
The sea surges up with laughterM
and pale gleams the smile of the sea beachN
Death dealing waves sing meaningless ballads to the childrenO
even like a mother while rocking her baby's cradleP
The sea plays with childrenO
and pale gleams the smile of the sea beachN
-
On the seashore of endless worlds children meetA
Tempest roams in the pathless skyQ
ships get wrecked in the trackless waterM
death is abroad and children playR
On the seashore of endless worlds is theS
great meeting of childrenO
