New England Winter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIHFJAKLMAN

Testing the soul's mettleA
the frost heavesB
holes in the roadsC
to the heartD
the glass forestE
raises up its branchesF
to praise all thingsG
that catch the lightH
then meltI
The forest floor is whiteH
but here there a boulder risesF
with its glacial arroganceJ
brooks that bubbleA
under the sheets of iceK
remind us that the tundra of the soulL
will softenM
just a littleA
towards the springN
