This octave is made up by two Italian Quatrains. Originally it had no meter, but pentameter has been preferred by most poets. The rhyme scheme is: a.b.b.a.a.b.b.a
“Picture Paradise”
` I close my eyes and picture paradise:
Warm, sandy beaches, tall palm trees
With trunks dancing so happily in breeze .
Soft surf lapping at my feet as loud cries
of seagulls calling out their dear good byes,
The soft music of the wind in the leaves
That rustles and prances only to please
Ah yes! That is where my paradise lies
