Alicante Lullaby Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAAAAA BBAACDB AAAAEDA| In Alicante they bowl the barrels | A |
| Bumblingly over the nubs of the cobbles | A |
| Past the yellow paella eateries | A |
| Below the ramshackle back alley balconies | A |
| While the cocks and hens | A |
| In the roofgardens | A |
| Scuttle repose with crowns and cackles | A |
| - | |
| Kumquat colored trolleys ding as they trundle | B |
| Passengers under an indigo fizzle | B |
| Needling spumily down from the wires | A |
| Alongside the sibliant narhor the lovers | A |
| Hear loudspeakers boom | C |
| From each neon lit palm | D |
| Rumbas and sambas no ear flaps can muffle | B |
| - | |
| O Cacophony goddess of jazz and of quarrels | A |
| Crack throated mistress of bagpipes and cymbals | A |
| Let be your con brios your capricciosos | A |
| Crescendos cadenzas prestos and pretissimos | A |
| My head on the pillow | E |
| Piano pianissimo | D |
| Lullayed by susurrous lyres and viols | A |
