The Willow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDEOn sweet young earth where the myrtle presses | A |
Long we lay when the May was new | B |
The willow was winding the moon in her tresses | C |
The bud of the rose was told with dew | B |
- | |
And now on the brittle ground I'm lying | D |
Screaming to die with the dead year's dead | E |
The stem of the rose is black and drying | D |
The willow is tossing the wind from her head | E |
