The Snow Storm Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDEEFGHHIINo hawk hangs over in this air | A |
The urgent snow is everywhere | A |
The wing adroiter than a sail | B |
Must lean away from such a gale | B |
Abandoning its straight intent | C |
Or else expose tough ligament | D |
And tender flesh to what before | E |
Meant dampened feathers nothing more | E |
Forceless upon our backs there fall | F |
Infrequent flakes hexagonal | G |
Devised in many a curious style | H |
To charm our safety for a while | H |
Where close to earth like mice we go | I |
Under the horizontal snow | I |
