The Plantster's Vision Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA CDECDECut down that timber Bells too many and strong | A |
Pouring their music through the branches bare | B |
From moon white church towers down the windy air | B |
Have pealed the centuries out with Evensong | A |
- | |
Remove those cottages a huddled throng | A |
Too many babies have been born in there | B |
Too many coffins bumping down the stair | B |
Carried the old their garden paths along | A |
- | |
I have a Vision of the Future chum | C |
The workers' flats in fields of soya beans | D |
Tower up like silver pencils score on score | E |
And Surging Millions hear the Challenge come | C |
From microphones in communal canteens | D |
No Right No Wrong All's perfect evermore | E |
