Colors Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCBCDEDEFBFBAA| For D M C | A |
| - | |
| The little man with the vague beard and guise | B |
| Pulled at the wicket Come inside he said | C |
| I'll show you all we've got now it was size | B |
| You wanted oh dry colors Well he led | C |
| To a dim alley lined with musty bins | D |
| And pulled one fiercely Violent and bold | E |
| A sudden tempest of mad shrieking sins | D |
| Scarlet screamed out above the battered gold | E |
| Of tins and picture frames I held my breath | F |
| He tugged another hard and sapphire skies | B |
| Spread in vast quietude serene as death | F |
| O'er waves like crackled turquoise and my eyes | B |
| Burnt with the blinding brilliance of calm sea | A |
| We're selling that lot there out cheap said he | A |
