Smiles Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GDCDBEFE| I saw a black girl once | A |
| As black as winter's night | B |
| Till through her parted lips | C |
| There came a flood of light | B |
| It was the milky way | D |
| Across her face so black | E |
| Her two lips closed again | F |
| And night came back | E |
| - | |
| I see a maiden now | G |
| Fair as a summer's day | D |
| Yet through her parted lips | C |
| I see the milky way | D |
| It makes the broad daylight | B |
| In summer time look black | E |
| Her two lips close again | F |
| And night comes back | E |
