The day returns, but nevermore
Returns the traveler to the shore,”
Using an AABB rhythm in the stanzas to make them rhyme. The rhyme is used the same way, when “their stalls/hostler calls”, rhyming at the end of the stanzas. The metaphor used when “the little waves, with their soft, white hands,” comparing a wave to a small white hand, using it when a form of life is compared to something that isn’t
