The Storm And The Bush Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFFEGHHG| There are only two things in the world | A |
| The storm in the air and the stretch of green leaves | B |
| The flesh of the forest that quivers and heaves | B |
| As the blast on its bosom is hurled | A |
| Above is the whip of the wind | C |
| That scourges the cowering forest beneath | D |
| The Storm spits the hiss of the hail from his teeth | D |
| And leaves the world writhing behind | C |
| Like a beast that is bound in a cage | E |
| When the keeper's lash lights and the keeper's goad stings | F |
| Each tree his great limbs to his torturer flings | F |
| In a groaning and impotent rage | E |
| As the leaves to a fiercer gust lean | G |
| The wind throws their undersides upward to sight | H |
| And the foam of the forest sea flashes to white | H |
| Out over full fathoms of green | G |
