The Hollow Wood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEB AAFAAAAOut in the sun the goldfinch flits | A |
Along the thistle tops flits and twits | A |
Above the hollow wood | B |
Where birds swim like fish | C |
Fish that laugh and shriek | D |
To and fro far below | E |
In the pale hollow wood | B |
- | |
Lichen ivy and moss | A |
Keep evergreen the trees | A |
That stand half flayed and dying | F |
And the dead trees on their knees | A |
In dog's mercury and moss | A |
And the bright twit of the goldfinch drops | A |
Down there as he flits on thistle tops | A |
