The Smiles Of The Bathers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGBFHIJ| The smiles of the bathers fade as they leave the water | A |
| And the lover feels sadness fall as it ends as he leaves his love | B |
| The scholar closing his book as the midnight clock strikes is hollow | C |
| and old | D |
| The pilot's relief on landing is no release | E |
| These perfect and private things walling us in have imperfect and | F |
| public endings | G |
| Water and wind and flight remembered words and the act of love | B |
| Are but interruptions And the world like a beast impatient and | F |
| quick | H |
| Waits only for those who are dead No death for you You are | I |
| involved | J |
