People And A Heron Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHAIJK| A desert of weed and water darkened stone under my western windows | A |
| The ebb lasted all afternoon | B |
| And many pieces of humanity men women and children gathering shellfish | C |
| Swarmed with voices of gulls the sea breach | D |
| At twilight they went off together the verge was left vacant an | E |
| evening heron | F |
| Bent broad wings over the black ebb | G |
| And left me wondering why a lone bird was dearer to me that many people | H |
| Well rare is dear but also I suppose | A |
| Well reconciled with the world but not with our own natures | I |
| we grudge to see them | J |
| Reflected on the world for a mirror | K |
