Wind Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHI JKLB| LONG ago I learned how to sleep | A |
| In an old apple orchard where the wind swept by counting its money and throwing it away | B |
| In a wind gaunt orchard where the limbs forked out and listened or never listened at all | C |
| In a passel of trees where the branches trapped the wind into whistling 'Who who are you ' | D |
| I slept with my head in an elbow on a summer afternoon and there I took a sleep lesson | E |
| There I went away saying I know why they sleep I know how they trap the tricky winds | F |
| Long ago I learned how to listen to the singing wind and how to forget and how to hear the deep whine | G |
| Slapping and lapsing under the day blue and the night stars | H |
| Who who are you | I |
| - | |
| Who can ever forget | J |
| listening to the wind go by | K |
| counting its money | L |
| and throwing it away | B |
