[month Of] January Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CAAC DEFFED

It freezes all across a soundless skyA
The birds go home The governing dark's begunB
The steadfast dark that waits not for a sunB
The ultimate dark wherein the race shall dieA
-
Death with his evil finger to his lipC
Leers in at human windows turning spyA
To learn the country where his rule shall lieA
When he assumes perpetual generalshipC
-
The undefeated enemy the chillD
That shall benumb the voiceful earth at lastE
Is master of our moment and has boundF
The viewless wind it self There is no soundF
It freezes Every friendly stream is fastE
It freezes and the graven twigs are stillD
