Cradles Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGH AIJC| Along the quay the great ships | A |
| that ride the swell in silence | B |
| take no notice of the cradles | C |
| that the hands of the women rock | D |
| - | |
| But the day of farewells will come | E |
| when the women must weep | F |
| and curious men are tempted | G |
| towards the horizons that lure them | H |
| - | |
| And that day the great ships | A |
| sailing away from the diminishing port | I |
| feel their bulk held back | J |
| by the spirits of the distant cradles | C |
