Somewhere I Have Never Travelled
By E.E Cummings
somewhere I have never travelled, gladly beyond
somewhere-never-traveled (internal rhyme)
any experience,your eyes have their silence:
experience-silence (internal rhyme)
in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
or which I cannot touch because they are too near
which-touch (internal rhyme)
your slightest look easily will unclose me
slightest- easily closed-myself (end rhyme: slant/inexact rhyme)
though I have closed myself as fingers,
closed-myself (end rhyme: slant/inexact rhyme)
you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens
(touching skilfully,my steriously) her first rose
skillfully-steriously (internal rhyme)
or if your wish be to close me,I and
wish-close (end rhyme:slant/inexact rhyme)
my life will shut very beautifully,suddenly,
beautifully-suddenly (internal rhyme)
as when the heart of this flower imagines
heart-flower (end rhyme:slant/inexact rhyme)
the snow carefully everywhere descending;
carefully-everywhere (internal rhyme)
nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
which-perceive (end rhyme:slant/inexact rhyme)
the power of your intense fragility: whose texture
compels me with the color of its countries,
color-countries (internal rhyme)
rendering death and forever with each breathing
death-breathing (exact rhyme)
(I do not know what it is about you that closes
not-know (end rhyme:slant/inexact rhyme)
and opens;only something in me understands
open-only (end rhyme:slant/inexact rhyme)
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
voice-eyes (end rhyme:slant/inexact rhyme)
nobody,not even the rain,has such small hands
has-hand (end rhyme:slant/inexact rhyme)
