Willow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACADEADFGA| And I grew up in patterned tranquillity | A |
| In the cool nursery of the young century | B |
| And the voice of man was not dear to me | B |
| But the voice of the wind I could understand | A |
| But best of all the silver willow | C |
| And obligingly it lived | A |
| With me all my life it's weeping branches | D |
| Fanned my insomnia with dreams | E |
| And strange I outlived it | A |
| There the stump stands with strange voices | D |
| Other willows are conversing | F |
| Under our under those skies | G |
| And I am silent As if a brother had died | A |
