Youth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIIIJK LJMNOKPQ| Strange bird | A |
| His song remains secret | B |
| He worked too hard to read books | C |
| He never heard how Sherwood Anderson | D |
| Got out of it and fled to Chicago furious to free himself | E |
| From his hatred of factories | F |
| My father toiled fifty years | G |
| At Hazel Atlas Glass | H |
| Caught among girders that smash the kneecaps | I |
| Of dumb honyaks | I |
| Did he shudder with hatred in the cold shadow of grease | I |
| Maybe But my brother and I do know | J |
| He came home as quiet as the evening | K |

| He will be getting dark soon | L |
| And loom through new snow | J |

| To the Ohio River and sit down alone | N |
| Whittling a root | O |
| He will say nothing | K |
| The waters flow past older younger | P |
| Than he is or I am | Q |
