Lament Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BAB BCB| lt i gt To the memory of my mother lt i gt | A |
| - | |
| And now she has over her head brown clouds of roots | B |
| a slim lily of salt on the temples beads of sand | A |
| while she sails on the bottom of a boat through foaming nebulas | B |
| - | |
| a mile beyond us where the river turns | B |
| visible invisible as the light on a wave | C |
| truly she isn't different abandoned like all of us | B |
