The Beach Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE DFGDF| Louder than gulls the little children scream | A |
| Whom fathers haul into the jovial foam | B |
| But others fearlessly rush in breast high | C |
| Laughing the salty water from their mouthes | D |
| Heroes of the nursery | E |
| - | |
| The horny boatman who has seen whales | D |
| And flying fishes who has sailed as far | F |
| As Demerara and the Ivory Coast | G |
| Will warn them when they crowd to hear his tales | D |
| That every ocean smells of tar | F |
