Sea-song. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBA AACDA AAEFA AAGGAIt sings to me it sings to me | A |
The shore blown voice of the blithesome sea | A |
Of its world of gladness all untold | B |
Of its heart of green and its mines of gold | B |
And desires that leap and flee | A |
- | |
It moans to me it moans to me | A |
The storm stirred voice of the restive sea | A |
Of the vain dismay and the yearning pain | C |
For hopes that will never be born again | D |
From the womb of the wavering sea | A |
- | |
It calls to me it calls to me | A |
The luring voice of the rebel sea | A |
And I long with a love that is born of tears | E |
For the wild fresh life and the glorying fears | F |
For the quest and the mystery | A |
- | |
It wails to me it wails to me | A |
Of the deep dark graves in the yawning sea | A |
And I hear the voice of a boy that is gone | G |
But the lad sleeps sound till the judgment dawn | G |
In the heart of the wind swept sea | A |
