Planting Bamboos Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLEM| Unrewarded my will to serve the State | A |
| At my closed door autumn grasses grow | B |
| What could I do to ease a rustic heart | C |
| I planted bamboo more than a hundred shoots | D |
| When I see their beauty as they grow by the stream side | E |
| I feel again as though I lived in the hills | F |
| And many a time on public holidays | G |
| Round their railing I walk till night comes | H |
| Do not say that their roots are still weak | I |
| Do not say that their shade is still small | J |
| Already I feel that both in garden and house | K |
| Day by day a fresher air moves | L |
| But most I love lying near the window side | E |
| to hear in their branches the sound of the autumn wind | M |
