Sea-born Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GAHA IJKJ LMNM| Afar in the turbulent city | A |
| In a hive where men make gold | B |
| He stood at his loom from dawn to dark | C |
| While the passing years were told | B |
| - | |
| And when he knew it was summer time | D |
| By the grey dust on the street | E |
| By the lingering hours of daylight | F |
| And the sultry noon tide heat | E |
| - | |
| Oh he longed as a captive sea bird | G |
| To leave his cage and be free | A |
| For his heart like a shell kept singing | H |
| The old old song of the sea | A |
| - | |
| And amid the noise and confusion | I |
| Of wheels that were never still | J |
| He heard the wind through the scented pines | K |
| On a rough storm beaten hill | J |
| - | |
| While beyond a maze of painted threads | L |
| Where his tireless shuttle flew | M |
| In fancy he saw the sunlit waves | N |
| Beckon him out to the blue | M |
