A Picture Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAABBB CCC DDDThe Sun burns fiercely down the skies | A |
The sea is full of flashing eyes | A |
The waves glide shoreward serpentwise | A |
And fawn with foamy tongues on stark | B |
Gray rocks each sharp toothed as a shark | B |
And hiss in clefts and channels dark | B |
- | |
Blood purple soon the waters grow | C |
As though drowned sea kings fought below | C |
Forgotten fights of long ago | C |
- | |
The gray owl Dusk its wings has spread | D |
The sun sinks in a blossom bed | D |
Of poppy clouds the day is dead | D |
