Especially When The October Wind Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGE HIJHJJJJ KLLKJMNJ AJJDJOOJ| Especially when the October wind | A |
| With frosty fingers punishes my hair | B |
| Caught by the crabbing sun I walk on fire | C |
| And cast a shadow crab upon the land | D |
| By the sea's side hearing the noise of birds | E |
| Hearing the raven cough in winter sticks | F |
| My busy heart who shudders as she talks | G |
| Sheds the syllabic blood and drains her words | E |
| - | |
| Shut too in a tower of words I mark | H |
| On the horizon walking like the trees | I |
| The wordy shapes of women and the rows | J |
| Of the star gestured children in the park | H |
| Some let me make you of the vowelled beeches | J |
| Some of the oaken voices from the roots | J |
| Of many a thorny shire tell you notes | J |
| Some let me make you of the water's speeches | J |
| - | |
| Behind a pot of ferns the wagging clock | K |
| Tells me the hour's word the neural meaning | L |
| Flies on the shafted disk declaims the morning | L |
| And tells the windy weather in the cock | K |
| Some let me make you of the meadow's signs | J |
| The signal grass that tells me all I know | M |
| Breaks with the wormy winter through the eye | N |
| Some let me tell you of the raven's sins | J |
| - | |
| Especially when the October wind | A |
| Some let me make you of autumnal spells | J |
| The spider tongued and the loud hill of Wales | J |
| With fists of turnips punishes the land | D |
| Some let me make you of the heartless words | J |
| The heart is drained that spelling in the scurry | O |
| Of chemic blood warned of the coming fury | O |
| By the sea's side hear the dark vowelled birds | J |
