The Winds Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABBA CDCDDC EFEFFE GHGHHG IJIJJI

In these green fields in this green springA
In this green world of burning sweetB
That drives its sour from everythingA
And burns the Arctic with new heatB
That seems so slow and flies so fleetB
On half seen wingA
-
In this green world the birds are allC
With motion mad are wild with songD
The grass leaps like a sudden wallC
Flung up against a foe that longD
Strode round and wrought his frosty wrongD
The bright winds callC
-
The bright winds answer the clouds riseE
White from the grave shaking their headF
Strewing the grave clothes through the skiesE
In languid drifting shadow shedF
Upon the fields where slowly spreadF
Each shadow diesE
-
In every wood is green and goldG
The unbridged river runs all greenH
With queenly swan clouds floating boldG
Down to the mill's swift guillotineH
Beyond the mill each murdered queenH
Floats white and coldG
-
If I could rise up in a cloudI
And look down on the new earth in flightJ
Shadow like cast my thought's thin shroudI
Back upon these fields of lightJ
And hear the winds of day and nightJ
Meet singing loudI
