The Sands Are Alive With Sunshine Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH| The sands are alive with sunshine | A |
| The bathers lounge and throng | B |
| And out in the bay a bugle | C |
| Is lilting a gallant song | B |
| - | |
| The clouds go racing eastward | D |
| The blithe wind cannot rest | E |
| And a shard on the shingle flashes | F |
| Like the shining soul of a jest | E |
| - | |
| While children romp in the surges | G |
| And sweethearts wander free | H |
| And the Firth as with laughter dimples | I |
| I would it were deep over me | H |
