Structural Analysis and Appreciation of the poem 'Eldorado' by Adgar Allen Poe
DrZik - I like it. From the structural point of view, it is a 100 % Varied Zikelite, unconsciously written in Zikorean style, as Dr Maya Angelou wrote her poem Tears.
Title: Eldorado
L1 Gaily bedight, 4
L2 A gallant knight, 4
L3 In sunshine and in shadow, 7
L4 Had journeyed long, 4
L 5 Singing a song, 4
L6 In search of Eldorado. 7
L7 But he grew old- 4
L8 This knight so bold- 4
L9 And o'er his heart a shadow 8
L10 Fell as he found 4
L11 No spot of ground 4
L12 That looked like Eldorado. 7
L13 And, as his strength 4
L14 Failed him at length, 4
L15 He met a pilgrim shadow- 7
L16 "Shadow," said he, 4
L17 "Where can it be- 4
L18 This land of Eldorado?" 7
L19 "Over the Mountains 5
L20 Of the Moon, 3
L21 Down the Valley of the Shadow, 8
L22 Ride, boldly ride," 4
L23 The shade replied- 4
L24 "If you seek for EldoRado! 8
It can be said that Adgar Allen Poe was a Zikite and great lover of short poetic lines (Zikorean style and structure).
