Silver Wind Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFDO you know how the dream looms how if summer misses one of us the two of us miss summer | A |
Summer when the lungs of the earth take a long breath for the change to low contralto singing mornings when the green corn leaves first break through the black loam | B |
And another long breath for the silver soprano melody of the moon songs in the light nights when the earth is lighter than a feather the iron mountains lighter than a goose down | C |
So I shall look for you in the light nights then in the laughter of slats of silver under a hill hickory | D |
In the listening tops of the hickories in the wind motions of the hickory shingle leaves in the imitations of slow sea water on the shingle silver in the wind | E |
I shall look for you | F |
