Beyond The Barn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAAC DBEEF GBHHI IBJJK KBLLI IBAAM NBOOBI rose up with the sun | A |
And climbed the hill | B |
I saw the white mists run | A |
And shadows run | A |
Down into hollow woods | C |
- | |
I went with the white clouds | D |
That swept the hill | B |
A wind struck the low hedge trees | E |
And clustering trees | E |
And rocked in each tall elm | F |
- | |
The long afternoon was calm | G |
When down the hill | B |
I came and felt the air cool | H |
The shadows cool | H |
And I walked on footsore | I |
- | |
Saying But two hours more | I |
Then the last hill | B |
Surely this road I know | J |
These hills I know | J |
All the unknown is known | K |
- | |
And that barn black and lone | K |
High on the hill | B |
There the long road ends | L |
The long day ends | L |
And travelling is over | I |
- | |
Nor thought nor travelling's over | I |
Here on the hill | B |
The black barn is a shivering ruin | A |
A windy cold ruin | A |
I must go on and on | M |
- | |
Where often my thought has gone | N |
Up hill down hill | B |
Beyond this ruin of Time | O |
Forgetting Time | O |
I must follow my thought still | B |
