Letter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABACDAEFAFAAGDHIAAJ KALAMNMLOPILQRASTUAB VAAA| You can see it already chalks and ochers | A |
| Country crossed with a thousand furrow lines | A |
| Ground level rooftops hidden by the shrubbery | B |
| Sporadic haystacks standing on the grass | A |
| Smoky old rooftops tarnishing the landscape | C |
| A river not Cayster or Ganges though | D |
| A feeble Norman salt infested watercourse | A |
| On the right to the north bizarre terrain | E |
| All angular you'd think a shovel did it | F |
| So that's the foreground An old chapel adds | A |
| Its antique spire and gathers alongside it | F |
| A few gnarled elms with grumpy silhouettes | A |
| Seemingly tired of all the frisky breezes | A |
| They carp at every gust that stirs them up | G |
| At one side of my house a big wheelbarrow | D |
| Is rusting and before me lies the vast | H |
| Horizon all its notches filled with ocean blue | I |
| Cocks and hens spread their gildings and converse | A |
| Beneath my window and the rooftop attics | A |
| Now and then toss me songs in dialect | J |
| In my lane dwells a patriarchal rope maker | K |
| The old man makes his wheel run loud and goes | A |
| Retrograde hemp wreathed tightly round the midriff | L |
| I like these waters where the wild gale scuds | A |
| All day the country tempts me to go strolling | M |
| The little village urchins book in hand | N |
| Envy me at the schoolmaster's my lodging | M |
| As a big schoolboy sneaking a day off | L |
| The air is pure the sky smiles there's a constant | O |
| Soft noise of children spelling things aloud | P |
| The waters flow a linnet flies and I say Thank you | I |
| Thank you Almighty God So then I live | L |
| Peacefully hour by hour with little fuss I shed | Q |
| My days and think of you my lady fair | R |
| I hear the children chattering and I see at times | A |
| Sailing across the high seas in its pride | S |
| Over the gables of the tranquil village | T |
| Some winged ship which is traveling far away | U |
| Flying across the ocean hounded by all the winds | A |
| Lately it slept in port beside the quay | B |
| Nothing has kept it from the jealous sea surge | V |
| No tears of relatives nor fears of wives | A |
| Nor reefs dimly reflected in the waters | A |
| Nor importunity of sinister birds | A |
