Tourists Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEGHIHI JKJKLMLM| In a strange town in a far land | A |
| They met amid a throng | B |
| They stared they could not understand | A |
| How life was sudden song | B |
| As brown eyes looked in eyes of grey | C |
| Just for a moment's space | D |
| Twin spirits met with sweet dismay | C |
| In that strange place | D |
| - | |
| And then the mob that swept them near | E |
| Reft them away again | F |
| Two hearts in all the world most dear | E |
| Knew puzzlement and pain | G |
| They barely brushed in passing by | H |
| A wildered girl and boy | I |
| Who should have clasped with laughing cry | H |
| And wept for joy | I |
| - | |
| But no the crowd cleft them apart | J |
| And she went East he West | K |
| But there was havoc in his heart | J |
| And brooding in her breast | K |
| In a far land in a strange town | L |
| Amid a mob they met | M |
| They stared they passed But O deep down | L |
| Can they forget | M |
