Beloved, Let Us Once More Praise The Rain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGGHIJGKLMNOPQR ESTUDV| Beloved let us once more praise the rain | A |
| Let us discover some new alphabet | B |
| For this the often praised and be ourselves | C |
| The rain the chickweed and the burdock leaf | D |
| The green white privet flower the spotted stone | E |
| And all that welcomes the rain the sparrow too | F |
| Who watches with a hard eye from seclusion | G |
| Beneath the elm tree bough till rain is done | G |
| There is an oriole who upside down | H |
| Hangs at his nest and flicks an orange wing | I |
| Under a tree as dead and still as lead | J |
| There is a single leaf in all this heaven | G |
| Of leaves which rain has loosened from its twig | K |
| The stem breaks and it falls but it is caught | L |
| Upon a sister leaf and thus she hangs | M |
| There is an acorn cup beside a mushroom | N |
| Which catches three drops from the stooping cloud | O |
| The timid bee goes back to the hive the fly | P |
| Under the broad leaf of the hollyhock | Q |
| Perpends stupid with cold the raindark snail | R |
| Surveys the wet world from a watery stone | E |
| And still the syllables of water whisper | S |
| The wheel of cloud whirs slowly while we wait | T |
| In the dark room and in your heart I find | U |
| One silver raindrop on a hawthorn leaf | D |
| Orion in a cobweb and the World | V |
