The Hollow Wood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEB AAFAAAA

Out in the sun the goldfinch flitsA
Along the thistle tops flits and twitsA
Above the hollow woodB
Where birds swim like fishC
Fish that laugh and shriekD
To and fro far belowE
In the pale hollow woodB
-
Lichen ivy and mossA
Keep evergreen the treesA
That stand half flayed and dyingF
And the dead trees on their kneesA
In dog's mercury and mossA
And the bright twit of the goldfinch dropsA
Down there as he flits on thistle topsA
