Generations Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDBEDFGHI JK

You are like the stemA
Of a young beech treeB
Straight and swayingC
Breaking out in golden leavesD
Your walk is like the blowing of a beech treeB
On a hillE
Your voice is like leavesD
Softly struck upon by a South windF
Your shadow is no shadow but a scattered sunshineG
And at night you pull the sky down to youH
And hood yourself in starsI
-
But I am like a great oak under a cloudy skyJ
Watching a stripling beech grow up at my feetK
