LA TOUR EIFFEL
(Author's name withheld by request)
This poem provides an example of quatrains with an interlocking or chain rhyme scheme.
So boldly wrought, with elegant form,
Her members cold, their unity warm,
She met and stemmed a captious storm
with
haute
insouciance.

She whispers skyward, sings to earth,
Binds old to new with wanton mirth,
Exalting Gallic pride of birth
Dans leur beau pays la France
