Improvisation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GBDBDHDH| I fed out of my hand a flock of keys | A |
| To clapping of wings and shrill cries in flight | B |
| Sleeves up arms out on tiptoe I rose | C |
| At my elbow I felt the nudging of night | B |
| The dark And the pond and the wash of waves | D |
| And screeching black beaks in their savage attack | E |
| All quick for the kill not to hunger and die | F |
| While birds of the species I love you fall back | E |
| - | |
| The pond And the dark The pulsating flare | G |
| From pipkins of pitch in the gloom of midnight | B |
| The boat keel nibbled by lapping of waves | D |
| And birds at my elbow in their wrath and fight | B |
| Night gurgled washed in the gullets of weirs | D |
| And it seemed if the young were unfed by rote | H |
| The hen birds would kill before the roulades | D |
| Would die in the shrilling the crooked throat | H |
