The Winds Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBA CDCDDC EFEFFE GHGHHG IJIJJI| In these green fields in this green spring | A |
| In this green world of burning sweet | B |
| That drives its sour from everything | A |
| And burns the Arctic with new heat | B |
| That seems so slow and flies so fleet | B |
| On half seen wing | A |
| - | |
| In this green world the birds are all | C |
| With motion mad are wild with song | D |
| The grass leaps like a sudden wall | C |
| Flung up against a foe that long | D |
| Strode round and wrought his frosty wrong | D |
| The bright winds call | C |
| - | |
| The bright winds answer the clouds rise | E |
| White from the grave shaking their head | F |
| Strewing the grave clothes through the skies | E |
| In languid drifting shadow shed | F |
| Upon the fields where slowly spread | F |
| Each shadow dies | E |
| - | |
| In every wood is green and gold | G |
| The unbridged river runs all green | H |
| With queenly swan clouds floating bold | G |
| Down to the mill's swift guillotine | H |
| Beyond the mill each murdered queen | H |
| Floats white and cold | G |
| - | |
| If I could rise up in a cloud | I |
| And look down on the new earth in flight | J |
| Shadow like cast my thought's thin shroud | I |
| Back upon these fields of light | J |
| And hear the winds of day and night | J |
| Meet singing loud | I |
