A London Plane-tree Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGH| Green is the plane tree in the square | A |
| The other trees are brown | B |
| They droop and pine for country air | A |
| The plane tree loves the town | B |
| - | |
| Here from my garret pane I mark | C |
| The plane tree bud and blow | D |
| Shed her recuperative bark | C |
| And spread her shade below | D |
| - | |
| Among her branches in and out | E |
| The city breezes play | F |
| The dun fog wraps her round about | E |
| Above the smoke curls grey | F |
| - | |
| Others the country take for choice | G |
| And hold the town in scorn | H |
| But she has listened to the voice | G |
| On city breezes borne | H |
